Course Description
As we focus on the future of green building, it is abundantly clear that we must educate, train and advocate for a strong, resilient pipeline of green building leaders. Efforts taken in the present to engage with students, local municipalities and underserved communities will address these challenges and benefit the green building industry for years to come.
Learn from USGBC partners who are developing innovative approaches to supporting the future green economy. Each community has focused on unique ways of supporting the growing labor market and addressing important topics related to equity, climate change and local building mandates.
