Green building training grants now available for higher education facilities

by jbs012010 b3 — January 22, 2010—Second Nature, with funding from The Kresge Foundation, is inviting colleges and universities in states with relatively low numbers of green building projects to apply for technical assistance grants of up to $2,000 each.

These grants will fund green building training opportunities for the external building professionals (i.e., construction contractors, architects, designers, engineers) that work with their schools.

Minority-serving institutions, community and technical colleges, smaller inner city, rural religiously affiliated institutions, and public universities in under-resourced states are encouraged to apply.

For grant guidelines, the application form and more detailed information, visit the Campus Green Building 101 Technical Assistance Grants Program page. The deadline for applications is February 12, 2010.
