I have noticed on Linkedin most of the women Architects are Leed Certified.

I wonder what is the proportion of men versus women that are certified?

I wonder if there is a way to find out? Anyone know how this information might be obtained?

Rory, I don't know the answers for your questions but I am very interested in becoming LEED accredited. I am taking my second class this week. This thing is coming, and you can be on top of the wave or under it, is the way I see it. If I can get accredited, I will be the first expediter in the Atlanta area able to assist clients with LEED certified building.

Thank you, my dear, I wish that I could believe everything about the green movement, but it is a huge pill to swallow. I went to a Green networking event last week, and almost got "outed" as a conservative by someone who is aware of my opinions. He decided against it when I showed him my gleaming fangs while suggesting that he not go there. I believe that it is the future of building but don't want to get involved in the politics. It makes more sense to conserve than to waste and that part I really like.

While there is a lot of misinformation out there. The concept is sound. It will only continue to grow. I think this one will explode in another 2-3 years.

Those on board will have an easier time transitioning and will be way ahead of the competition
