We began promoting the CEDA program in late 2021 by attending select industry conferences to introduce the program and build name recognition. In 2022, we expanded our efforts by hosting webinars and lunch-and-learns, partnering with AIA chapters, and significantly increasing our presence at conferences through speaking engagements, exhibits, and attendance. The primary goal for 2022 was to build visibility and establish credibility within the architecture, engineering, and development communities. These events allowed our team to connect directly with key players across the industry.

  • 194 market actors participated in CEDA training sessions in 2022, helping expand awareness and understanding of high-performance design strategies across California.
