National Green Building Conference
May 8-10
Dallas

A new business management track at the National Green Building Conference will help you learn to green your business. The educational sessions will address green business practices, legal issues, government programs and more.

The conference offers more than 30 educational sessions in green business management, building science, design and sales, and marketing. Author Joel Makower, the co-founder and executive editor of Greener World Media as well as a senior strategist at GreenOrder, a sustainability consultancy, will be the keynote speaker. The conference also will feature a tour of green homes in the Dallas area, a dinner honoring the winners of the NAHB National Green Building Awards and an exhibit hall featuring the latest green products and materials.

In addition, the 2009 class of Certified Green Professionals (CGP) will be honored at a pre-conference reception on Thursday, May 7. To date, more than 2,000 builders, remodelers and other home building industry professionals have earned the CGP designation.
