You're aware of the major changes that are coming to the LEED Accredited Professional (LEED AP) system. If you pass the exam now, you come on board through the older, more familiar system that doesn't require actual LEED project experience.

The key dates for the changeover have finally been announced.

Now all that's left to do is register for the exam by March 31, 2009 on the Green Building Certification Institute website.

Oops... the GBCI site isn't working. According to an announcement just posted to the USGBC site, "Due to unexpected website maintenance, we are extending the deadline for registration for the LEED AP NC and CI exams to April 1, 2009 at 11:59 pm (Pacific Time)."

You have an extra 24 hours. The winner here is anyone who takes the exam on April 1 and fails. That's because after registration closes, you only have one shot at it, before you have to wait a few months for a completely different exam. If you fail tomorrow, hurry home and register again! (Bringing your vinyl credit card with you, of course.)

Good luck everyone!

Thanks to my colleague Mark Piepkorn for noticing this situation.
