Howeve...Congratulations indeed, I totally envy you! However, a famous saying comes to mind following the recent press release from GBCI - "it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings". This release, if you haven't seen it, announces what I feel was inevitable...the launch of GBCI's credentialing maintenance program for LEED professionals. LEED APs and Green Associates will now have to take continuing education classes and/or apply their knowledge on LEED projects and actively participate in the green building community. Here's a direct link to the press release: http://www.gbci.org/News/PressReleaseDetails.aspx?ID=7<br /><br />The credentials will have to be maintained on a 2-year cycle. If the requirements are not met, the credential expires!!!<br /><br />You are very fortunate to be leading the way with your LEED AP credential...now you just have to maintain it!!<br /><br />Hopefully this will be a heads up to folks reading this blog that may not be aware of this "new rule"!!Suzannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833862183729859310.post-25351499629410112172009-07-04T10:25:26.436-07:002009-07-04T10:25:26.436-07:00Thank you Lesley.

It's always interesting to see why people have become LEED-certified and see what they feel they have gained. I especially liked your comparisons to the military. You're right; they can't take that LEED AP status from you!! Congratulations and good luck with all you do. Great post, great explanations.Lesley LEED APhttp://www.everblueenergy.com/blog/noreply@blogger.com
