O+M 251: Understanding the Operations + Maintenance National Workshop
|
200 Level Course
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This workshop introduces the credit intents, key elements, main requirements, and reference standards of the Green Building Operations + Maintenance (O+M) LEED rating system. Workshop participants will gain a solid understanding of the core concepts and strategies behind a successful existing green building project.
Led by official USGBC LEED Faculty who are LEED and facilitation experts, this workshop provides an understanding of the scope of the LEED O+M rating system, examining all prerequisites and credits in LEED O+M’s six credit categories: Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy & Atmosphere, Indoor Environmental Quality, Materials & Resources, and Innovation in Operations; it also addresses Regional Priority credits. The workshop introduces all of the credits, going into detail on the goals, intents, requirements, and strategies of prerequisites and selected key credits. The course also reinforces understanding of synergies between credits, and provides an overview of the LEED certification process, including basic documentation considerations.
Throughout the day, participants will engage in discussions and interactive activities to enforce what is taught about LEED O+M prerequisites, credits, and concepts.
