Precertification

Precertification is a formal recognition by IGBC for projects aspiring for IGBC Green Homes Rating. Precertification is granted to projects on review of the early design stage documentation. Once a project is registered as an IGBC Green Homes project, the project team may submit the documentation for precertification.

The project documentation is reviewed and an IGBC Green Homes Precertification level (certified, silver, gold or platinum) is granted. A certificate and letter are provided to the project.
