NAR's GREEN Designation
This new course comes as a result of the growing demand
for REALTORS® to understand green concerns and
implement sustainable practices in their day-to-day business.
As the foundation of NAR's Green Designation program,
this two-day course gives students a broad understanding of
green real estate principles--from the concepts of
sustainability, New Urbanism, and smart growth to the
application of industry ratings and evaluation standards in
real estate. As a practical resource, this course shows real
estate professionals how to explain to consumers what
makes a home, building, or property green, how to list and
market green properties while fulfilling ones legal and
professional obligations, and how to implement green
practices on the road and in the office.
In addition, this course discusses how real estate
consumers can determine the energy efficiency of their
properties, take advantage of green grants and initiatives,
and reduce everyday toxins in the home and workplace.
NAR's Green Designation Core Course counts as credit
toward earning the NAR's Green Designation, awarded by
the Green REsource Council. This course also meets the
elective course requirement for the ABR® Designation awarded
by the Real Estate Buyers Agent Council (REBAC). A copy of
the course completion certificate is required to receive credit
towards your ABR® designation.
