In response to the growing number of requests to provide information about green building to groups around the state, the SC Chapter is organizing a Speakers Bureau, which will allow our Chapter to provide up-to-date, accurate information on the growing green building movement, in the form of presentations given by Chapter Members to civic, professional, government and academic organizations.

WE WANT YOU to apply to be a member of our bureau!
Are you comfortable speaking to groups about a topic about which you are passionate? Are you eager to be a part of spreading the word about the benefits of green building and sustainable communities?
We hope you will volunteer to serve the Chapter as a member of our speakers bureau and be “on call” to speak with groups about the benefits of green building!

Please see our Speakers Bureau FAQ for more details about how the program will operate and how to apply!

Please check back, as we will continue to upload presentations from the educational sessions from the 2010 Conference, which took place May 13-14 in North Charleston, SC.
