Becoming a Certified Green Building Professional
Attendance at each session of the CGBP training and a passing grade on the final exam (80%) are required to earn certification. Participants who miss a session must attend that session at a future CGBP training within 12 months before they can take the final exam and become certified.
All graduates of the CGBP training may choose to become affiliates of the Green Building Professionals Guild. Various chapters of the Guild meet every month and provide continuing education and networking opportunities.
Certification is valid for two years, and recertification is required to keep certification current.
