Professional Development Credits for NY-GEO's April 2022 Conference
LEED - All NY-GEO sessions are eligible for self reported credits
LEED Accredited Professionals may self-report* their continuing education credit per guidelines in the Credential Maintenance Handbook https://www.usgbc.org/sites/default/files/2019-GBCI-CMP-Guide.pdf
To self-report CMP activities for LEED, log into your Credentials account and select Report CMP Activity.
*Education should be relevant to green building, which includes environmental sustainability, health, wellness, resiliency, and the circular economy. Education for general CE hours can come from learning activities that are approved by GBCI, or from non-GBCI approved courses. Examples of non-GBCI approved courses that may be eligible for general CE hours include college and university courses, simulated project participation, workshops,courses and conference events. GBCI recommends using the credit categories/concepts indicated on page 1 as a guideline to help you determine what constitutes general green building topics.
Please note that courses can only be counted towards credential maintenance once, and the same course cannot be reported in subsequent reporting periods. Under the continuing education activity type, rating system-specific credit can only be earned through GBCI approved education designated as LEED-specific, SITES-specific or WELL-specific.
