LEVEL by BIFMA (accredited CEU)
September 26, 2024 | 12:00 – 1:00 PM Eastern Time
This course gives detail to the LEVEL® certification by BIFMA and its role in the selection of sustainable furniture. Though many building rating systems and programs feature sustainability criteria, none focus extensively on the sustainability of furniture. LEVEL® takes furniture sustainability further than other certifications and is a key tool for furniture selection.
This event is part of the BIFMA Monthly Learning Series. There is no cost to attend.
