Sustainable Building Program Goes National

Originally founded in Seattle in 1999, the Sustainable Building Advisor Program has grown into a national endeavor. Now available in several communities in Washington and Oregon, as well as in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, the program is geared toward building professionals who are looking to extend their knowledge of green building practices. Students in the program attend intensive sessions one weekend a month for nine months, learning through classroom instruction and on-site inspections of buildings. At the end of the course, students can take an exam to become certified sustainable building advisors. For more information, visit www.nasbap.org.
