ICC creates a new International Green Construction Code certification
The International Code Council, with a sponsorship from ASHRAE, a global HVACR membership society, released its new International Green Construction Code (IgCC) certification, Commercial Green Construction Professional.
The Commercial Green Construction Professional certification was created to assist in developing new standards for building construction in order to address the problem of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to help reinforce societal health, life and safety benefits. Professionals who hold this certification will lead the way in helping to conserve resources and regenerate sites while providing expertise in offering solutions to resilience through natural disasters, a changing climate, resource consumption/management, and service interruptions due to unforeseen events.
