Affordable Green Building:

Tips From a Variety of Perspectives

Wednesday, May 21, CNHED's Training Institute is collaborating with GreenHOME, Inc. and Enterprise Community Partners, Inc. to host a course that will feature green experts from the fields of: Architecture, Development, Mechanical System Design, Civil Engineering, Landscape Architecture, Construction and Building Operations.

After an overview of Enterprise’s Green Communities standards (the standards required by law beginning October 2008), each expert will then highlight basic approaches that lead to successful green affordable housing projects.

Immediately following the seminar, 12 experts will be available for 15-minute consultations with attendees to make recommendations and discuss strategies for your organization’s projects.
