LEED Green Associate Credit Classifications: Categories Without Need for Previous Requirements
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Associate Exam evaluates one's knowledge of green building practices and principles, including understanding the various LEED credit categories and their requirements.
One of the distinct credit categories within the LEED system is 'Location and Transportation'. Unlike other categories such as 'Indoor Environmental Quality' and 'Materials and Resources', the 'Location and Transportation' category does not have any required prerequisites. This unique aspect should be well-understood for the LEED Green Associate Exam.
Projects can earn points in the 'Location and Transportation' category by meeting the requirements of the individual credits, which may include promoting walkable neighborhoods, providing transit options, and reducing the need for driving.
In contrast, the 'Indoor Environmental Quality' category has prerequisites such as 'Minimum Indoor Air Quality Performance' and 'Environmental Tobacco Smoke Control', which set standards for ventilation, air quality, and prohibiting smoking inside the building.
Another prerequisite-requiring category is 'Water Efficiency', which has the requirement 'Outdoor Water Use Reduction', requiring projects to reduce outdoor water consumption. The 'Materials and Resources' category, on the other hand, has the prerequisite 'Storage and Collection of Recyclables', requiring dedicated areas for recyclable material collection and storage.
Understanding the prerequisites for each LEED credit category is essential for preparing for the LEED Green Associate Exam. The USGBC offers a free LEED Green Associate certification exam practice question and answer dump, which can be helpful in passing the exam and earning the USGBC LEED Green Associate certification.
In addition to the 'Location and Transportation' category, other credit categories within the LEED system include 'Water Efficiency', 'Materials and Resources', and 'Indoor Environmental Quality'. Each credit category may have different requirements for earning credits, so it's important to familiarize oneself with the specifics of each category.
Preparing for the LEED Green Associate Exam involves understanding the unique aspects of each credit category, such as the absence of prerequisites in the 'Location and Transportation' category. By doing so, one can better prepare for the exam and demonstrate knowledge of the LEED system and its various credit categories.
