As people specify more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly homes and buildings, they want the contractors working on their jobs to know the latest green building innovations. The Green Advantage Environmental Certification recognizes construction personnel who successfully prove their green knowledge. Pursue certification for you and your team to:
• Attain Higher Quality Performance – A study by the University of Florida found that projects using Green Advantage certified practitioners achieve favorable environmental, health and crew collaboration results.
