So like everybody else, I had planned on trying to get through with the LEED exam before the testing style changed but to no avail. Silly old me went to Spain for two months and couldn't get to it. I had registered for it and everything but I didn't end up taking it.
Now I'm back in America and I'm looking at the requirements and all I can say is eeeeffffgggghhh! What happened?!? There are so many requirements that I have to go through just to make myself a LEED AP. Not to mention more money and more time. And as we all know, time is money. I am kicking myself in the butt for not taking this test earlier but more so, I find myself wondering: "Are the people who are LEED AP prepped for what is going on in this world right now?"
I know a few people who took the test simply to have the title LEED AP with no architectureal background and now there is a requirement to have experience. Granted, the new crop (including me) will have better experience and knowledge, who really cares now? The system seemed to be broken and now we are trying to fix it but there are cracks in the foundation already.
So what do we do? I don't know but I don't think making two exams and making me pay more money is the correct answer. Geez. This is going to take some time now. Just my thoughts though.
