The Whole-Building Life Cycle Assessment Professional microcredential provides the knowledge and skills needed to effectively use LCA in design decisions for works of construction. Developed in partnership with the Athena Sustainable Materials Institute, this microcredential consists of four courses delivered online by experienced LCA professionals through a combination of self-paced work and virtual live lectures.
Learners will gain foundational knowledge of life cycle thinking, embodied carbon, and LCA standards and methods that they will apply as they conduct whole-building LCAs and calculate the carbon impact of building materials using Athena’s free LCA software. Learners will complete the microcredential with a final project where they will undertake a thorough whole-building LCA and produce a comprehensive report in compliance with the national guidelines on whole-building LCA.
