This is a live, repeat presentation of a webinar that was originally offered on 03/10/16. Attendees of the previously offered presentation, RV-W031016, will not receive CEU for attending the 07/21/16 presentation.
This one‐hour webinar discusses the importance of a facility that has been designed and built as not only “green” with energy efficiency and water consumption technologies but also allows us to breathe easy, give us views of nature and daylight, and make us healthier. Green buildings, when operated as intended, improve working environments, promote higher productivity, reduce energy and resource costs, and prevent system failures. LEED for Interior Design and Construction (LEED ID+C) enables project teams who may not have control over whole building operations to develop indoor spaces that are more comfortable for users and more mindful of our resources.
 
Note: This is a live webinar delivered via WebEx. Session instructions will be emailed to you 24-48 hours prior to the webinar and the morning of the webinar.
