A&D professionals may now receive one AIA Learning Unit credit for attending an ANSI/BIFMA e3 Furniture Sustainability Standard and level Certification Program continuing education one-hour session.

The level continuing education program is also approved for IDCEC CEU and GBCI CE credit. During the program, trained level faculty members offer technical education for the A&D community, facility mangers, commercial building owners, end users, dealers and manufacturers who wish to understand the specifics of the standard in a framework that showcases how it applies to their everyday need to specify sustainable products.

The continuing education program was recently updated to include information about LEED Pilot Credit 80: Environmentally Preferable Interior Finishes and Furnishings – a credit that specifically recognizes products that have been third-party certified to the ANSI/BIFMA e3 Furniture Sustainability Standard. The purpose of Pilot Credit 80 is to increase the use of interior finishes and furnishings with validated multi-attribute environmental and social profiles.
