It would be impossible to understand LEED rating systems by going through this course alone. It's just like lots of information thrown at your face without making a clear connection between it all. I mean, all the information is there but it is hard to make sense of it. Also, I hate to say it but the rhythm is extremely boring, which makes it even harder to follow. Compared to many other courses I have taken on Udemy, I feel I paid way too much, even with the discount.

Instructor Bio
Karim Elnabawy, Senior Sustainability Consultant, Environmental Specialist, Project Architect, and Licensed Instructor from U.S. Green Building Council, LEED Accredited Professional with multiple accreditations and certifications, and project management professional.
With 10+ years of experience, I have wide experience in sustainable design, Architecture, Environment, energy and construction where I have led sustainable development in various projects in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Egypt, and Oman.
I have received many awards for architecture and sustainable design excellence from USA, Italy, Greece, Emirates, India, and Egypt. In 2017, I was shortlisted for the rising star of the year in the ME from Construction Week Magazine for my contribution in sustainability and green building practices in construction industry. I have managed to train more than 3000 professionals, academics, and students on sustainability and green building practices.
I recognizes sustainability in the built environment to be an interdisciplinary issue that requires bridging between science and design, education and practice; in broader terms, I considers sustainability as a form of Quality. To emphasize sustainable practices, I established GBERA Green Building Education and Research Academy that provides education courses, research analysis, and professional sustainability services.
