If the Qualifying Contractors, Subcontractors, and Building Trades have passed the LEED AP or GA test does that meet the requiremetns of this Pilot Credit?

I worked on a project that submitted for 30% of subcontractors to be Green Advantage Certified. The comment from GBCI was all personal, including the general contractor or construction manager also needed to be included in the calculations... so keep that in mind!

Hello, This credit is designed for the contractors and operators, so the green building training program needs to be geared to that community. GPRO (developed by Urban Green Council) is the first such green building training program to qualify. You can see more information here: http://gpro.org/gpro-qualifies-for-leed-pilot-credit-81/ Ellen Honigstock Director of Construction Education Urban Green Council

The USGBC website says they provide a list of qualifying programs on their resource tab, but I don't find it there. http://www.usgbc.org/node/2737915?return=/pilotcredits Has anyone else located it?
