With the end of the year approaching, you may need to accumulate and/or report your year-end continuing education accomplishments. Below, you can just learn how to find, manage, and report any GreenHome Institute CEUs you have accumulated. Then, please find out how to get more CEUs quickly if you need them.
End of the year CEU Reporting
The vast majority of GreenHome Institute’s educational sessions have been approved for the following CEU types:
Green Business Certification Inc. (GBCI) Building Performance Institute (BPI) NonWholeHouse American Institute of Architects – AIA (HSW) Certified Green Professional (NARI & CGP) Certified GreenHome Professional (CGHP) Pillar(s): Energy, Materials, American Institute of Building Designers (AIBD) Building Science Institute (BSI) Verifier Society of American Registered Architects (SARA) Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC)Some sessions also include LEED AP Homes or BD+C and the MI Realtor license.In addition, many sessions may also qualify for various local, state, and regional programs for builders, designers, real estate, and engineering license renewals.
Each program has various reporting requirements. However, the vast majority of them are self-reporting, which requires logging into your portal to report on each course. AIA and SARA report for members. Maintaining backup documentation for potential audits and accurate reporting is a good idea.
GreenHome Institute tracks your CEUs in two places: live session attendance is tracked in the Gutenberg portal, and on-demand attendance is tracked on Thinkific. All AIA member attendees are also added to the AIA portal as long as the correct AIA # is submitted in the survey following each webinar.
So, for live webinar CEU records, you can log in to Gutenberg Certificates here and create an account if you have not logged in. You need to use the email you used during our live webinars, which will be associated with your certificates. If you used multiple emails, you may have multiple accounts – we can just merge these whenever you’d like. This compiles a database of the sessions you’ve attended; download these to retain them for your records and submit them to your CEU provider.
For on-demand class attendance records, you can log in here, access your certificates, download them, and report them to your CEU provider.
For AIA and SARA CEUs, check your transcripts. If there is a course you have a certificate for from either of the various methods above, email your certificate proof and AIA number to Brett.Little@greenhomeinstitute.or for reporting assistance. Please see below for a potential solution if you still need the certificate.
