2. Environmental Assessment Methods LEED (United States) BREEAM (United Kingdom) Greenstar (Australia) CASBEE (Japan)

3. BREEAM has trained assessors who assess the evidence against the credit criteria and report it to the BRE, who validate the assessment and issue the certificate. LEED does not require training, there is a credit available if an accredited professional (AP) is used. The role of the AP is to help gather the evidence and advise the client. The evidence is then submitted to the US-GBC which does the assessment and issues the certificate. Certification Process
