High performance, LEED, green, sustainable, ENERGY STAR®, energy efficient ... have you been trying to figure out what it all means, how it all fits together...and most importantly, how to incorporate them into your programs? This session will provide an overview and discussion of Advanced Buildings including example training materials, program collaterals, and technical resources for design professionals.

Advanced Buildings offers information on how to take the first step to achieve your performance goals, whether they are your own, LEED or ENERGY STAR. Advanced Buildings is technical resources, trainings and information to improve the way buildings are designed, built and used.
