As of 1 February 2024, the Green Star Practitioner course has changed to Green Star Fundamentals. The Green Star Fundamentals course will continue to be a prerequisite for the Green Star Accredited Professional courses.  However once expired, the current formal qualification of Green Star Practitioner will cease to exist.

Green Star Fundamentals FAQs

The Green Star Fundamentals course provides a good working knowledge of the categories and credits within the Green Star suite of tools and the need-to-know requirements of working within a Green Star project. 

This pathway is a prerequisite for the Green Star Accredited Professional course and does not satisfy the Green Star Accredited Professional requirements of the Green Star tools. 

This course is targeted at those who are working, or plan to work, within a Green Star project, or would simply like to understand more about the Green Star suite of tools.

We recommend you allow a full day to complete this course, which is essential if you want to later attend the GSAP course.

To access the online modules, please purchase the course. You will then receive a notification email from LearnWorlds with your login details to the online programme. This may take up to three working days upon payment.
