If you have more than 2 components to your program, is there an opportunity to earn more than 1 point for this ID credit?

In other words, can you earn an Exemplary Performance point for an educational program ID credit? I doubt it. I haven't heard of this kind of thing being allowed, and it seems like it would put too much weight on a single strategy.

For the innovation credit via education outreach, we may use strategies such as website and signages on the site. The owners plan to install a digital display showcasing the green initiative undertaken by the group in all their properties, including our project. However, this display will be installed in the property on the plot adjacent to our project. Can this still be an eligible strategy instead of signage on our site?

Heather, this is only my opinion, but I don't think an offsite display like you're describing has the same impact as onsite signage. It seems too much like a website, actually, in terms of who it's reaching. I think you'd want to add another strategy to make a stronger case for this credit.
