LEED v5 for Construction & Contractors: Delivering High-Performance Projects on the Jobsite, July 9, 12 - 1 pm
Event Description
As LEED v5 raises the bar for performance, transparency, and accountability, contractors are playing a more central role than ever in achieving certification outcomes. This session explores how construction teams directly influence credit achievement through jobsite practices, documentation workflows, and early collaboration with design teams.
Designed for general contractors, construction managers, and trade partners, this webinar will break down what’s new in LEED v5 and what it means in practice—from aligning with frameworks like the Contractor’s Commitment to managing construction-phase requirements such as waste diversion, indoor air quality (IAQ), and ESG reporting.
Through real-world insights and implementation strategies, presenters will highlight how proactive contractor engagement can reduce risk, streamline compliance, and drive measurable sustainability outcomes on LEED v5 projects.
Learning Objectives -
1. Understand how LEED v5 elevates the role of contractors in achieving certification outcomes
2. Identify key construction-phase credits and requirements impacted by jobsite practices and execution
3. Apply practical strategies for managing LEED documentation, data tracking, and compliance workflows
4. Explain how early collaboration and frameworks like LEED v5 supports project success
Kristin Brubaker is the Head of Sustainable Construction Solutions at Green Badger, where she helps the construction industry move faster and smarter on LEED, embodied carbon tracking, ESG, and green building certifications through software and education built specifically for AEC professionals. She has spent most of her career as the person construction teams call when they have a LEED question, a sustainability goal they’re not sure how to hit, or a project that needs someone who actually understands the job site. She built that foundation over nearly four years at Whiting-Turner as their Sustainability Practice Coordinator, supporting projects with LEED, Net Zero, and embodied carbon goals while leading the company’s health, wellness, and sustainability initiatives. Outside of work, Kristin serves on the Board of Directors of Green Building United.
