ASM is pleased to team up with the Boston chapter of NAWIC (National Association of Women in Construction), to offer a two-day LEED Green Associate course, which is the first step towards becoming a LEED Accredited Professional (AP).

Each student will receive an Everblue course manual, memorization study sheets, 500 online practice questions, and a certification of completion, which qualifies students to sit for the LEED Green Associate exam. Depending on interest, the LEED AP training will be offered later in the spring.
The Feb. 1-2 course will be hosted by engineering firm Simpson, Gumphertz & Heger in Waltham and the cost to attend is $350, a fraction of regular rates.
