LEED Ver3 and LEED AP Exam

Today, I thought of sharing some of the key dates about LEED Ver 3 and LEED AP Exam dates with the followers of my blog .

March 27^th: LEED V3 reference guides will be available for purchase .Price range will be $115 and $185 depending on your membership /attendance of workshop.

April 27^th: Official launching date of LEED V3. This means that the project teams can register their projects for LEED V3 after this date.

However, for 60 days, projects can still register for the current version (LEED Version 2) as well. Projects currently registered for LEED Version 2 have 180 days (until October26th) to transfer it to LEED Version 3 free of charge. After 180 days, there will be a new registration fee to do so. Projects that remain registered under LEED Version 2 will be unable to use the new (better, faster & updated) version of LEED-Online for their projects.

June 26^th: The 60 Days overlap period ends (as explained above)

October 24^th: The 180 Day free migration period ends (as explained above)

If you are one of the LEED AP or planning to become a LEED AP the following dates will be important for you.

March 31^st: The last day to REGISTER for LEED Ver 2 .2 LEED AP Exam (NC or CI).The test can be schedule to take until June 30^th.

If you are already a LEED AP and passed the current version, you will become known as a Legacy LEED AP. As a Legacy LEED AP, you can update to the new LEED AP + credential by signing a disciplinary policy and agreeing to complete credential maintenance within 2years.
