Share Your Projects and Expertise with Features in 2022 Green Building Directory

We are starting the process of planning our 2022 Green Building Directory. With 25,000 copies distributed at 100 spots in Western North Carolina, this directory is a great way to share your company's offerings in the broader community and market your brand for high visibility in a targeted demographic.
We include listings for all members at the business level and higher, and there are several ways you can benefit from even more visibility in our latest issue publishing this summer.
- Contribute content. Each year, our directory is enriched with article features and case studies written by our members and about their projects. To be included, email story ideas to cari@greenbuilt.org ASAP. Content is due May 31.
- Place an ad or enhance your listing. Review ad rates, then email sophia.b@smokymountainnews.com to reserve. Enjoy a discount before the early-bird deadline on May 27.
- Become a member. Whether you're joining for the first time or renewing after a lapse, there's no better time to become a member and benefit from all the related marketing exposure. For inclusion, memberships must be active by July 1.
As our industry continues to expand, the annual Green Building Directory offers a unique opportunity to position your company for future growth and increase market share. Confirm your presence in our directory and help our nonprofit advance regional awareness of green building, sustainability and your company's services.

Spring Continuing-Education Class Series Begins One Week From Today

Next week, Green Built Alliance will launch our spring schedule of continuing-education courses that will fulfill the six elective hours required annually by North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors, as well as being eligible for credit through American Institute of Architects and certain other trade organizations.
For four consecutive weeks in May starting a week from today, we'll host virtual classes via Zoom from 2 to 4 p.m. on Tuesdays with discounts for members and free equitable access tickets available to individuals who identify as BIPOC and LGBTQ.
All four available classes are approved hours for general contractors as well as architects, and also count toward our new Regenerative Professional Accreditation credential that acknowledges a deep, evolving competency in advanced green-building best practices.
Our spring series brings back some of our most popular classes from past offerings. Stay tuned for new classes to come this fall.
***** For the two-hour mandatory course required for GCs, we are referring to TrainingFolks, which has an asynchronous e-learning option for the class. You can receive a $10 discount off each course you purchase when you use Green Built Alliance’s coupon code — NCGC0109 — at checkout. Visit this website to register.

Climate-Conscious Banking Option Supports Our Nonprofit
As some of our members have expressed interest in divesting from banks that support fossil fuels and other polluting industries, Green Built Alliance has created a new partnership with Atmos Financial. With no fees, no minimum balance, and 100 percent of customer deposits invested in clean-energy solutions, Atmos will donate $40 to Green Built Alliance in April or $20 thereafter for each new account.
