GBCI anticipates that LEED v5 exams will be available in Quarter 2 2026 (between April and June 2026). Candidates who take the exam to earn their LEED credential in 2025 will be tested on content from the LEED v4 rating systems.

Exam development for both the LEED Green Associate and LEED AP with specialty exams starts once the LEED v5 rating system has been balloted and approved and the LEED v5 rating system reference documentation is finalized.

As soon as the exam publication date has been set, GBCI will update registered exam candidates and provide ample time for candidates to prepare and schedule their exams.
