Energy dashboard - ID credit

I am working on a building for a college and they want to install a "Digital Dashboard" . The dashboard would observe the performance of the building for students and facility management. The sign will have listed energy usage, water usage, etc. From my undestanding the dashboard will account just for part of the ID credit and the college will have to implement something in addition that is not green education. Am I correct? Or the college need to implement one more green education tool such a tour of the building? Your help is appreciated.

Dena, have you reviewed LEEDuser's guidance above on "Educational programs"?

If your intent is to submit an ID credit for an Education Program, I believe the requirement is to offer more than one educational effort in the program. The digital dashboard and tour should be a good match, because they offer outreach to multiple audiences with different types of information about the facility. That said, Tristan's recommencation is good advice. Education programs have become so commonplace that the reviewers are quite stringent on meeting the letter of the law. In this case, there are a number of interpretations and older CIRs that have been rolled into fairly prescriptive guidance for project teams.
