It is not performing the monitoring, but taking the data that is already available and presenting it in a way so that it is more visual and easy to understand for educational purposes. The Energy Efficiency Education Dashboard also contributes towards satisfying points towards green building certification programs including the U.S. Green Building Council's Innovation in Design Green Education and Innovation in Design School as a Teaching Tool credits under LEED, a variety of points under The Green Building Initiative's Green Globes green building rating and assessment system, and the Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS).
