I have a question about the scope of this credit. I am working with a client who has started a large amount of initiatives to educate his building occupants about sustainability; forming a green committee to discuss how to make the office more sustainable, giving employees tips on how to make their homes more efficient, placing more recycling receptacles, coordinating a group to organize carpools, he has even created a competition to see which employees can save the most amount of energy at home (winners get x months energy bills paid for).
While it would be relatively hard to quantify this credit, I believe a real effort has been made to educate the occupants that isn't addressed by EB. Would this idea of exemplary occupant education and participation in sustainability be a viable approach for obtaining a point in this category?
Thanks

Ben, that is definitely a valid way to earn an IOc1 point.Just to be clear on terminology -- it's following the Innovation path for the credit, not the Exemplary Performance path.
