During the pilot years, participants will be able to enjoy COMPLIMENTARY ADMISSION into the "Green Building Advantage" program, ensuring that the cost of admission is not a barrier to accessing its comprehensive curriculum and industry resources.

As a result, potential REET Candidates will be required to complete an online application and undergo an in-person interview conducted by a panel of MREP Board Executives and renewable energy experts.

Alongside possessing a relevant professional background, REET Candidates will also be chosen based on their genuine desire to advance their businesses, real estate assets, and/or career goals into the Green Economy.

Therefore, participants will also be selected based on their ability and demonstrated commitment to attend all classes, as well as have the desire, financial capability, and operations to successfully implement a renewable energy project, initiative, program, professional service, and/or obtain a small business procurement or workforce development contract.

However, if a student misses more than two (2) REET classes, they automatically forfeit their status in the program and will be ineligible from receiving the array of graduation benefits upon completion of the fifteen (15) weeks
