SÃO PAULO, 12 de Setembro de 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Face à elevada procura e atividade aumentada no sector da construção no Brasil, o Green Building Council (USGBC) norte-americano anunciou hoje que o exame LEED Green Associate será oferecido em Português. O anúncio foi feito na Conferência Internacional e Exposição Greenbuilding Brasil em São Paulo.

"O conjunto de profissionais que aposta na construção sustentável ("green building") no Brasil continua a crescer em harmonia com o seu portfolio de projetos com certificação LEED", disse Scot Horst, Vice-presidente sénior, LEED, USGBC. "A tradução do exame LEED Green Associate para português foi uma evolução natural para apoiar o tamanho e a escala do mercado de construção amigo do ambiente no Brasil, bem como para tornar o exame LEED Green Associate mais acessível. Um aumento dos profissionais especializados em construção sustentável irá contribuir para a criação de emprego, uma força de trabalho qualificada e um conjunto significativo de indivíduos preparados para liderar a economia em crescimento."

A certificação "LEED Green Associate" indica um conhecimento fundamental do programa de LEED e da construção sustentável em geral, para além de um compromisso para com a sustentabilidade. Sendo o mais preliminar no conjunto de certificações LEED para profissionais, a certificação "LEED Green Associate" foi já atribuída a mais de 29.000 profissionais em todo o mundo desde que o programa de certificação foi lançado.

Horst continua: "A USGBC tem trabalhado de forma muito próxima com a Green Building Council Brasil para fazer isto possível. O seu trabalho na revisão do exame traduzido e na organização da participação dos profissionais LEED no Brasil foi vital para o processo. Celebramos o seu trabalho na Greenbuilding Brasil através deste anúncio e neste fórum tão magnífico."

"Estamos bastante entusiasmados com esta iniciativa e optimistas quanto à possibilidade de nos ajudar a disseminar conhecimento e a influenciar novos líderes a juntarem-se ao nosso movimento", disse Felipe Faria, Gestor de relações institucionais e governamentais do Green Building Council Brasil. "Apesar do sucesso da certificação LEED no Brasil, que nos está a ajudar a elevar o nível técnico do sector de construção, para nós, a certificação LEED é uma ferramenta educacional muito importante. Mais de 34.000 profissionais já participaram no nosso Programa Nacional de Educação e a maioria veio porque estava interessada em saber mais sobre a certificação LEED. Assim, os exames 'LEED Green Associate', traduzidos agora para português, irão ajudar-nos a acelerar ainda mais o nosso movimento, ajudando-nos a capacitar e encorajar indivíduos que estejam conscientes e que sejam capazes de assumir posições de liderança."

Espelhando uma tendência mundial, o Brasil tem atualmente 523 projetos com registo LEED e 65 projetos com certificação LEED, o que totaliza quase 16 milhões de metros quadrados de espaço de construção. A utilização do sistema LEED fora dos Estados Unidos continua a crescer rapidamente e cerca de 40% de toda a área construída requerer a certificação LEED está fora dos EUA. Enquanto programa de construção sustentável mais amplamente usado e reconhecido, a certificação LEED certifica 158 metros quadrados de espaços comerciais, abrangendo mais de 154.000 projetos certificados e registados junto da LEED em 135 países.

O exame LEED Green Associate está atualmente disponível em inglês e francês e ficará disponível em chinês, português e espanhol em mais centros de testes a partir de Novembro. As inscrições para o exame LEED Green Associate em português estão abertas e o exame estará disponível na maioria dos centros de testes, a partir de 24 de Setembro.

U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)
O U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)assumiu o compromisso para com um futuro próspero e sustentável, através de construções amigas do ambiente, eficazes em termos de custo e com poupança energética. O USGBC trabalha na sua missão de transformar o mercado através do seu programa LEED de construção sustentável, grande oferta de programas educativos, uma rede nacional de filiais e parceiros, a "Conferência e Exposição Internacional Greenbuild" anual e atividades de apoio a políticas públicas que encorajem e capacitem a construção sustentável e as comunidades. Para mais informações, visite usgbc.org e ligue-se a nós pelo Twitter, Facebook e LinkedIn.

LEED
O sistema de construção sustentável LEED do U.S. Green Building Council é o principal programa para a concepção, construção, manutenção e operação de edifícios "verdes". Quase 50.000 projectos participam actualmente nos sistemas comerciais e institucionais de classificação LEED, abrangendo assim 2,74 mil milhões de metros quadrados de espaço construído, espalhados pelos 50 estados norte-americanos e 135 países. Para além disso, mais de 23.000 unidades residenciais foram certificadas pelo sistema de classificação "LEED for Homes" ("LEED para Casas"), com quase 86.000 casas adicionais já registradas.

Ao utilizar menos energia, os espaços certificados pela LEED poupam dinheiro às famílias, empresas e contribuintes, reduzem as emissões de dióxido de carbono e contribuem para um ambiente mais saudável para residentes, trabalhadores e a comunidade em geral. Saiba mais em usgbc.org
