The first hour outlining the course content was slow. This portion can be shorten and the techical portion expanded.
By John A. - Attended class on April 22, 2013
I very much enjoyed the class. The interaction was great; the Instructor was very good. Some of the answers seemed a bit off the charts. Example it's OK to add double the foot print of a building if the existing structural components remain in play. However, when I suggested going up and keeping the same foot print was a better option than covering more land with new structure, I was informed that the Leeds points would not count in that scenario . It was my impression that a large part of the Green Building concept was to minimize the spread of land use and maximize the use of existing structures. Perhaps I misunderstood the question and answer but, I don't think so.
However, it was a great learning experience. Hopefully, I know how to get registered for the exam and where to find the practice questions.

Jean was professional and lively and had an excellent grasp of the material. She gave us plenty of opportunities to ask questions and have discussions.
My only suggestion relates to the handbook itself NOT JEAN. My handbook was actually missing some content and several pages were poorly rendered.
By Katherine S. - Attended class on April 17, 2013
Jean is very passionate about what she teaches.
I was very pleased and learned something I was completely clueless about LEED. I was volunteered by my General Manager to attend as our hotel is a Gold Leed Seal hotel. Now we needed a rep
Because Jean's passion is contagious, I caught the Leed bug
Thank you!

Class was a little long. It could have been broken down to a 2 or 3 day review. The teacher was excellent with deep interest in her teaching along with being very knowledgeable to things that pertain to the meterial. Overall a great course to take if your looking to pass and have a better idea for what the L.E.E.D green associates is all about.
By Leonardo B. - Attended class on April 16, 2013
very clear and patient
By Carlos Z. - Attended class on April 15, 2013

By Susan K. - Attended class on April 12, 2013
Enjoyable and informative class. Lisa was personable and easy to discuss things with and explained things well. I'm looking forward to my next LEED class.
By Robert P. - Attended class on April 11, 2013
I'm looking forward to attending the next session on preparing for my AP Exam with her as the presenter / trainer.
By Catherine S. - Attended class on April 10, 2013
Overall, Kimberly demonstrated a vast knowledge base in the LEED rating system and conveyed that knowledge with enthusiasm. She has provide the class with the necessary tools and techniques to become LEED GA certified and the next steps to take in order to become LEED AP certified. Kimberly was engaging with her questions and answers and created a comfortable learning atmosphere, through her method of breaking the ice with the class. The next step Kimberly could take is to keep everyone on track with the learning content. It was a pleasure to have met Kimberly and believe she is a valuable asset to the company.
By Sandy C. - Attended class on April 10, 2013
Kimberly is by far, one of the best instructors I have ever had. Her effervescent personality and her enthusiasm about the material kept the students focused. She was concise and she used many meaningful examples to explain and support concepts. Kimberly was also careful not to assume we knew even basic definitions. Quite often she would stop and ask ,"Does everyone know what this means?"... before continuing. I got a lot out of this course and highly recommend both the course and this amazing instructor.
By Darrell H. - Attended class on April 10, 2013
Very knowledge and handled questions professionally.
By Gary B. - Attended class on April 10, 2013
Good environmenht, comfortable, well informed. A 10 hour corse timetable might be better.
By Christopher M. - Attended class on April 10, 2013
I found the course to be very informative, so much so that it was a bit overwhelming, though I believe that was more an issue of the make up of the class participants than anything else.
I would recommend the class in the future for others in my company.
By Antonio G. - Attended class on April 8, 2013
Excellent.
By Michael Devin G. - Attended class on April 8, 2013
This was a great refresher from my sustainability engineering courses in college. It took a textbook worth of material and crammed it into two days worth of information that is relevant to the LEED GA exam. Perfect.
By Lawrence P. - Attended class on April 6, 2013
Lisa did an exceptional job. Not only did she prove to have a command of the material, but she also added interesting and relevant examples from her own professional experience. Each day was paced perfectly. Her warm and inviting style dissolved the digital barrier between us and made me comfortable with the format.
By Pablo H. - Attended class on April 6, 2013
Lisa was very knowledgeable in all subjects and gave great examples to further explain. I highly recommend this class to those who are seeking distance education.
By Bruno R. - Attended class on April 6, 2013
Lisa is the best instructor i've ever had!!! Thank you very much for your time!
By Toni C. - Attended class on April 4, 2013
Kimberly is an awesome instructor. She provided very clear and concise information on LEED GA exam prep. I will definitely benefit from attending this seminar. It was very informative.
By Barb H. - Attended class on April 4, 2013
I would give Kimberly a 5 out of 5. Very informitive and held interest as the day is long and alot of information to cover. I would recommend Kimberly for training.
By John M. - Attended class on April 4, 2013
She was awesome
By Tyler D. - Attended class on April 4, 2013
Mark was awesome. A very downtoearth guy with tons of knowledge just waiting to share it with students. He was passionate about the subject and had a broad understanding of it. I would take another class with him if given the chance.
By Keranie T. - Attended class on April 4, 2013
Mark was a great tutor who was very knowledgable and excited to share his expertise with the students.
By Marline C. - Attended class on March 29, 2013
Jean handled the technical difficulties first thing very well. Found the information interesting, and her experience an important addition of the content.
By Sean M. - Attended class on March 29, 2013
Jean had excellent knowledge of the content and was very energetic. She kept everyone interested for the duration of the class. Thanks again!
By Dina K. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
She was wonderful, knowledgable, and helpful!
By Francoise S. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
Lisa was a great teacher. She's extremely knowledgable, she was professional and overall made the class worth my while. I would highly recommend this class to anyone. Thank you!
By Phil P. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
This class overall was very good. We reviewed all course material within the textbook provided. Our instructor stopped every once in a while and made sure any questions, comments, or concerns were addressed. This class was packed with information regarding LEED and I took notes as needed to prep for the exam. I plan on taking the exam soon so hopefully everything goes well.
By Kevin G. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
The class was over all a very enjoyable experience. The atmosphere was calm and comfortable. The instructor was knowledgeable and had useful experiences that she used to relate to course material.
By Christopher O. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
I thougt the class was very professional and well thought out. It seemed to cover all of the general topics of the LEED process and structure, and some I didn't even know from previous LEED projects I've been involved in.
I'm hopeful that the course gave us a good example of what the test structure will be, but that is to be determined. I look forward to hopefully passing and obtaining my Green Associate accredidation and then continuing with LEED AP training in the same manner.
By Jeff B. - Attended class on March 28, 2013
The class was a great overview and the instructor was well prepared. Lisa used a lot of real world examples that helped explain many of the concepts. Good course overall.
By Edward M. - Attended class on March 27, 2013
Instructor kept us on target of reviewing for the test questions. Managed the time wisely allowing some sidebar conversations that will assist me as I use the information with my job.
By Kim H. - Attended class on March 25, 2013
Incredible instructor! Great class!
By Donell S. - Attended class on March 21, 2013
Great class. Great Teacher. Thanks Lisa, Kate & Rachel!!!
By Julie M. - Attended class on March 21, 2013
Class was good but was mostly just reading through the slide that were handed out. Could have used more hands on work through the material to help get a better understanding.
By Connie R. - Attended class on March 21, 2013
Lisa was very knowledgeable and presented the class with ease.
By Glen B. - Attended class on March 15, 2013
Lisa is clearly excited about LEED, which is very motivating. She presented the material in a clear and easy to understand manner.
By Anthony D. - Attended class on March 13, 2013
Instructor was very good. Allowed us to express our thoughts. Class was not very big, only about 7 people. I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 only because of the speed.
By Stan S. - Attended class on March 13, 2013
Very good presentation Jean is very knowledgeable
By Nicholas V. - Attended class on March 13, 2013
Great day and well worth my time
By Katherine C. - Attended class on March 13, 2013
Very clear overview of the GA exam contents. Jean was very patient and answered all of the attendees questions as we worked our way through the materials. The GreenEdu flashcards, which I bought, go into even more depth and detail. Seems like a good idea to use the flashcards to reinforce the material covered in the 1day course.
By D.J. A. - Attended class on March 12, 2013
The Insturctor Lisa was great.
By Erin D. - Attended class on March 12, 2013
Very knowledgable instructor
By Kristin F. - Attended class on March 11, 2013
She was great, very knowledgeable.
By Steve K. - Attended class on March 11, 2013
Instructor very knowledgable and friendly. Only critical feedback I would offer is that less time could be spent reading the text, we can do that on own. Overall very good course, good instructor, well worth the time.
By Nicole C. - Attended class on March 11, 2013
Very good, very helpful course. The last day however was extremely rushed. It would have been helpful to either extend it another hour or even add on an extra night.
By Mark B. - Attended class on March 11, 2013
I found that the course was well organized and utilized two objectiveseducating professionals as to the general concepts of Leed and the specifics of passing the exam. The webinar connection was stable and instructor, Heather,was effortless in her presentation. Bo Baltis
By Roxana D. - Attended class on March 11, 2013
The class was very informative. I know the they mentioned from the beginning that the last class would run over, but I wouldn't mind if the classes were longer in general so we'd have more time to review all the material and not feel rushed. The questions that were asked at the end of every section were helpful, but some of them seemed too basic and easy. I wish more of the questions were asked that were more analitical and not as straigh forward as questions that asked i.e. what LEED stands for.
By Evelyn C. - Attended class on March 4, 2013
The lectures delivered the necessary level of detail while ensuring that the content is still comprehensive enough for Leed newbies. Lynn was knowledgable and approachable. Very happy with the GA Prep.
