The bonus in-person session will take place on Nov. 12 for those attending Greenbuild. It will include a review of key concepts, an instructor-led review of case studies and best practices from the field, tips for preparing for your LEED Green Associate exam, and practice quizzes and guidance on scheduling your exam. (Greenbuild registration is a separate purchase and required to receive access. Space at this additional workshop is limited, so early registration is recommended.)

Overbey, the instructor, is a LEED Fellow; LEED AP BD+C, ID+C, O+M; ActiveScore AP; AIA; EcoDistricts AP; NCARB; and WELL AP. He is associate principal and director of sustainability for Browning Day and assistant professor of architecture at Ball State University's R. Wayne Estopinal College of Architecture and Planning. His work focuses on high-performance, net zero energy and net zero carbon building design and construction; environmental systems research; energy and life cycle assessment modeling; and resilient design.
