HOURS OFEDUCATION
The first GAP project at the WorldBeat Cultural Center (WBC) in Balboa Park was launched in 2010 and provided LEED project experience to over 40 volunteers In 2012 WBC achieved LEED Silver Certification under the LEED v2009 for Existing Buildings rating system Upgrades and retrofits implemented at WBC from the GAP program resulted in reducing annual indoor water usage by over 20 increased the natural daylight in the performance space through the installation of tubular daylighting devices and helped reduce the energy draw through new LED stage lighting In addition significant upgrades were made to the hybrid natural ventilation system providing more outdoor ldquofreshrdquo air to the building Of the 40 plus volunteers involved on the project 12 have used the experience for LEED AP or Green Associate exam eligibility and preparation while those volunteers with an existing LEED credential used the experience to fulfill their credential maintenance requirements In addition the project provided volunteers with valuable networking and work experience leading to a handful of personal and professional accomplishments we celebrate within our community
COLLABORATE
The Green Assistance Program (GAP) was developed to aid local non-profits and community centers that desire to green their buildings and operations The premise of GAP is to rally local green building expertise in service to institutions that support our community to bridge the lsquogaprsquo between our community of building professionals and the community at large GAP enables these non-profits to lighten the burden of operating their buildings so they can better focus on their mission The program also provides SDGBC members with valuable LEED project experience and the opportunity to learn from and network with other green building professionalsDirect GAP project involvement consists of an approximately 9-month period with volunteers working in teams organized by LEED credit category Volunteers with diverse backgrounds and experience levels are recruited from the SDGBC community Teams then explore the feasibility of each credit through the completion of a LEED EB O+M feasibility assessment qualifying
recommendations based on a cost benefit analysis The teams then support the non-profit partner in implementing sustainability upgrades and beginning the LEED certification process in two phases ndash an establishment period of adoptingimplementing plans policies and data collection methods and a performance period in which actual building performance is logged Documenting LEED credits often requires measuring detailed long-term operations in the performance period and can be otherwise cost prohibitive for the non-profit partners with whom SDGBC works However many of the assessment recommendations will result in long term life-cycle savings enabling the non-profit to invest these savings in its mission For non-profits that choose not to pursue LEED certification the team still provides recommendations and support regarding sustainability upgrades and best practices in operations using LEED EB O+M metrics to quantify sustainable performance

The first GAP project at the WorldBeat Cultural Center (WBC) in Balboa Park was launched in 2010 and provided LEED project experience to over 40 volunteers In 2012 WBC achieved LEED Silver Certification under the LEED v2009 for Existing Buildings rating system Upgrades and retrofits implemented at WBC from the GAP program resulted in reducing annual indoor water usage by over 20 increased the natural daylight in the performance space through the installation of tubular daylighting devices and helped reduce the energy draw through new LED stage lighting In addition significant upgrades were made to the hybrid natural ventilation system providing more outdoor ldquofreshrdquo air to the building Of the 40 plus volunteers involved on the project 12 have used the experience for LEED AP or Green Associate exam eligibility and preparation while those volunteers with an existing LEED credential used the experience to fulfill their credential maintenance requirements In addition the project provided volunteers with valuable networking and work experience leading to a handful of personal and professional accomplishments we celebrate within our community

The Green Assistance Program (GAP) was developed to aid local non-profits and community centers that desire to green their buildings and operations The premise of GAP is to rally local green building expertise in service to institutions that support our community to bridge the lsquogaprsquo between our community of building professionals and the community at large GAP enables these non-profits to lighten the burden of operating their buildings so they can better focus on their mission The program also provides SDGBC members with valuable LEED project experience and the opportunity to learn from and network with other green building professionalsDirect GAP project involvement consists of an approximately 9-month period with volunteers working in teams organized by LEED credit category Volunteers with diverse backgrounds and experience levels are recruited from the SDGBC community Teams then explore the feasibility of each credit through the completion of a LEED EB O+M feasibility assessment qualifying
recommendations based on a cost benefit analysis The teams then support the non-profit partner in implementing sustainability upgrades and beginning the LEED certification process in two phases ndash an establishment period of adoptingimplementing plans policies and data collection methods and a performance period in which actual building performance is logged Documenting LEED credits often requires measuring detailed long-term operations in the performance period and can be otherwise cost prohibitive for the non-profit partners with whom SDGBC works However many of the assessment recommendations will result in long term life-cycle savings enabling the non-profit to invest these savings in its mission For non-profits that choose not to pursue LEED certification the team still provides recommendations and support regarding sustainability upgrades and best practices in operations using LEED EB O+M metrics to quantify sustainable performance

The first GAP project at the WorldBeat Cultural Center (WBC) in Balboa Park was launched in 2010 and provided LEED project experience to over 40 volunteers In 2012 WBC achieved LEED Silver Certification under the LEED v2009 for Existing Buildings rating system Upgrades and retrofits implemented at WBC from the GAP program resulted in reducing annual indoor water usage by over 20 increased the natural daylight in the performance space through the installation of tubular daylighting devices and helped reduce the energy draw through new LED stage lighting In addition significant upgrades were made to the hybrid natural ventilation system providing more outdoor ldquofreshrdquo air to the building Of the 40 plus volunteers involved on the project 12 have used the experience for LEED AP or Green Associate exam eligibility and preparation while those volunteers with an existing LEED credential used the experience to fulfill their credential maintenance requirements In addition the project provided volunteers with valuable networking and work experience leading to a handful of personal and professional accomplishments we celebrate within our community

The Green Assistance Program (GAP) was developed to aid local non-profits and community centers that desire to green their buildings and operations The premise of GAP is to rally local green building expertise in service to institutions that support our community to bridge the lsquogaprsquo between our community of building professionals and the community at large GAP enables these non-profits to lighten the burden of operating their buildings so they can better focus on their mission The program also provides SDGBC members with valuable LEED project experience and the opportunity to learn from and network with other green building professionalsDirect GAP project involvement consists of an approximately 9-month period with volunteers working in teams organized by LEED credit category Volunteers with diverse backgrounds and experience levels are recruited from the SDGBC community Teams then explore the feasibility of each credit through the completion of a LEED EB O+M feasibility assessment qualifying
recommendations based on a cost benefit analysis The teams then support the non-profit partner in implementing sustainability upgrades and beginning the LEED certification process in two phases ndash an establishment period of adoptingimplementing plans policies and data collection methods and a performance period in which actual building performance is logged Documenting LEED credits often requires measuring detailed long-term operations in the performance period and can be otherwise cost prohibitive for the non-profit partners with whom SDGBC works However many of the assessment recommendations will result in long term life-cycle savings enabling the non-profit to invest these savings in its mission For non-profits that choose not to pursue LEED certification the team still provides recommendations and support regarding sustainability upgrades and best practices in operations using LEED EB O+M metrics to quantify sustainable performance
ldquoGAP HAS GENERATED PRICELESS AMOUNTS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR ME SDGBC HAS
PROVIDED ME WITH REAL TIME PROJECT BASED LEARNING TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE LEED EBOM
RATING SYSTEMS WHICH HAS GIVEN ME THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE TO SUCCEED IN THE AP EXAMrdquo
