In partnership with the US Green Building Council-Los Angeles (USGBC-LA), the Building Owners and Managers Association of Greater Los Angeles (BOMA-GLA), and Service Employees International Union (SEIU)-United Service Workers West, the Building Skills Partnership developed the Green Janitor Education Program in 2014. Janitors are accredited and provided with hands
-on energy management and green cleaning training to address Operations and Maintenance practices that enable buildings to meet green performance standards. Energy Efficiency, recycling, waste management, water conservation, and other sustainable and green cleaning practices are addressed in the program.

To learn more about the Green Janitor Education Program, you are invited to participate in a Webinar on Thursday, October 26th from 11am-12pm. By attending the webinar, you will learn 1) how GJEP could benefit your worksite and have positive social, economic, and environmental impacts on your building; 2) what janitorial workers learn and how they are positively affected by the program; and 3) how to participate and become one of the many buildings that have already benefited from the Green Janitor Education Program. Who should attend? Building Owners, Property Managers, Janitorial Contractors, and the Green Building Community. Click here for more information about the webinar.
