LEED Fellows Recognized

The Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) has named 34 industry practitioners as the inaugural class of LEED Fellows, the high professional honor designated by the organization. The USGBC formally recognized the 2011 class of fellows during Greenbuild International Conference and Expo in Toronto, Canada.

To be considered for the program, nominees must be LEED Accredited Professionals (LEED APs) with specialty (such as LEED AP BD+C) who have held the LEED AP credential for eight cumulative years, and must document a total of at least 10 years of experience in the green-building field.
