One of the nation's most heavily attended educational events, Turning Green into Gold 2.0, is scheduled for Philadelphia City in April. The series, which began in 2002 and soldout in several cities, has been expanded to a full day for 2003.

"If you are looking for facts rather than clichés then this hands-on seminar on high performance building design, construction and operation is for you," says the seminar leader, Alan Whitson. Presented is a cornucopia of facts, statistics, and knowledge of how architects, building owners, facilities managers, and developers can design and manage their buildings to become better stewards of the environment.

The morning session, presented by Whitson, shows sustainable strategies that can be applied to new construction or renovation projects, and how to cut energy costs while adding value to the building.

The afternoon session brings attendees the latest in LEED Rating Systems and Green Product Selection Strategies. Updates are provided on the U.S. Green Building Council's three primary LEED programs: LEED 2.1 for New Construction, LEED for Existing Buildings, and LEED for Commercial Interiors.
