Register Your Project

(Homebuilders interested in participating in the LEED for Homes program must contact a LEED for Homes Provider organization.)

1. Contact a LEED for Homes Provider

2. Confirm with your chosen Provider that your project is suitable for LEED for Homes (Check your project's eligibility for LEED for Homes)

3. Upon receiving approval from a Provider, register your project with USGBC by selecting the “Register” button below*  (You will need to create a USGBC site user account if you do not already have one)

4. Your registration is complete when USGBC receives payment of the registration fee. (To receive the USGBC member price, the individual registering the project must be an employee of a national member organization.  If you would like more information about national membership for organizations, please visit our Membership page.)

*If you are registering 10 or more single family homes or multi-family buildings, please contact your Provider for a volume registration form.
