I've emailed info@architecture2030.org but nothing yet. Anyone have any suggestions for contacting the administrators?

This is sort of dragging up an ancient topic, but curious how your firms are currently addressing accreditation (LEED AP, WELL AP, LFA, etc.). There was a time when we were all talking about this, and a number of firms instituted requirements, but it has been a long time, and I'm curious how it's looking now in 2024. Thanks!

Is anyone successfully using Simergy?
