Tournesol Siteworks is sponsoring a new CEU course, presented by McGraw-Hill at their Construction.com website.  We’ve spent the last three years talking about living walls to architects, landscape architects and designers. There has always been a huge interest in the topic, and we thought it would be worthwhile to expand our own efforts to teach the design community.

The course, written by Peter J. Arsenault, FAIA, NCARB, LEED-AP, incorporates both living wall and green facade topics. It draws inspiration as well from the Living Walls 101 Course developed by the Green Roofs for Healthy Cities organization.  McGraw-Hill has indicated that there has been strong interest in the course so far, even without much promotion!

We’d love any feedback you might have about the value the course, and the corresponding CEU credit has for you. From our understanding, all AIA approved CEU courses are also eligible for ASLA CEU credits, and even USGBC LEED credits.  Let us know what you think.
