Come say “hi” and visit with HPDC staff at Greenbuild – we’ll be discussing all things HPD at Booth #2042 and available to provide any assistance you need for creating and using HPDs. If you are interested in meeting with an HPDC staff member during the week, feel free to contact us to schedule a time that works best for you.

We have several events happening at the booth throughout the week – click here to view the schedule. In particular, from 1-2 pm on Thursday, members of the Third-Party Verification TSG and Pilot Participants will be on-hand to answer questions about the just-announced Third Party Verification Program. You can see a full list of Pilot Participants on our website.

We encourage all members to use the HPDC booth as a “base camp” on the expo floor, as we are a member organization, it is ALL of our booth!
