Green Business Certification Inc.

Green Business Certification Inc. (GBCI) is an American organization that provides third-party credentialing and verification for several rating systems relating to the built environment. It was established as the Green Building Certification Institute in January 2008 with the support of the U.S. Green Building Council to provide independent oversight of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) project certification and professional credentialing processes. The current name was adopted on 16 April 2015 after the organization began providing the same service for the International WELL Building Institute's WELL Building Standard, the Perfect Power Institute's PEER standard, and the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark.[1]

LEED Professional Credentials

The suite of LEED professional credentials was designed to denote leadership in green building and to distinguish building professionals with the knowledge and skills to successfully steward the LEED certification process. Credentialing exams and designations administered by GBCI include the LEED Green Associate, LEED AP with specialty, and LEED Fellow, as well as the LEED for Homes Green Rater and Green Classroom Professional certificates. The LEED professional credential exams are ANSI 17024 accredited.

LEED Project Certification

GBCI administers the LEED certification program, performing third-party technical reviews and verification of LEED-registered projects to determine if they have met the standards set forth by the LEED rating system. As of April 2013, the total footprint of LEED-certified projects is nearly 3 billion square feet, and nearly eight billion additional square feet are registered with GBCI for LEED certification.

gollark: Int8 apparently causes it to just output random noise and I never got round to trying quantisation aware training for it.
gollark: It's quite strange that apparently BERT can be statically quantized without any extra training and retains decent accuracy but GPT-Neo emits nonsense going through the same process.
gollark: I was looking into quantization-aware training a while ago, but on the 125M model, and running that for a bit made it produce English-looking nonsense instead of random noise.
gollark: I think there's technically a way to swap bits of the model in and out of VRAM but it would still be quite slow.
gollark: You need a recent GPU with something like 16GB of VRAM.
