I've read that (over the weekend) and it does not seem bad!Core Concepts is all you need to pass the GA
This is what I came in to ask. Has anything changed since then or is it still the same? I used to be an HVAC engineer where it might have made a difference, but I am completely out of that field now. I am a legacy AP and never did the maintenance to upgrade to BD+C.QUOTE (DaveW @ Sep 19 2011, 01:55 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Why do you want the extra credential? I took the test before 2009 to avoid the hassle of maintenance. I get emails enticing me to add a credential, when all it really adds up to is just more $$$ for USGBC. Unless something has changed, Legacy LEED-AP is all you need to work on a LEED project. Correct me if I'm wrong.
You don't need any credential to work on a LEED project. The only time it comes into play is if you are seeking the 'bonus' point in the ID category. LEED 2012 draft has a note that you will need a LEED AP with the specialty of the project as well as two other current LEED professionals, either GA or AP with specialty... Long story short, when LEED 2012 launches, 'legacy' AP's will no longer be able to earn that point. If that is worth something to you, enrollment may be a good idea. For most, hard to say if it holds enough value to outweigh the maintenance.
