This new module was developed to instruct construction supervisors on sustainable construction management techniques, especially as they relate to the construction-phase LEED points targeted for their projects. Key content includes coverage of project sustainability goals, green building materials and technologies, green building methods and processes, and more! A collaborative effort of the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI), the Myers-Lawson School of Construction at Virginia Tech, the University of Florida, and Subject Matter experts from the Top 100 Green Contractors in the United States*, this module covers a topic not addressed until now-sustainable construction management for front-line supervisors. This module has been endorsed by GBCI and approved by USGBC for 20 general and LEEDspecific (B+D, I+D, and O+M) continuing education hours for credential maintenance.
