What primary role does the LEED AP have during the LEED certification process?

The primary role of a LEED AP during the LEED certification process is to assist project team members

in understanding the LEED rating system. A LEED AP possesses advanced knowledge in green building

practices and expertise in a specific LEED rating system, which enables them to facilitate the project’s

certification process by guiding the team through the requirements and credits of the LEED system1.

Reference:

Information about the role of LEED AP can be found in the LEED professional credentials section on

the U.S. Green Building Council website1.
