WELL Accredited Professional Qualification

The WELL Building Standard is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying and monitoring features of the built environment that impact human health and wellbeing through air, water, nourishment, light, fitness, comfort and mind.

"The demonstrated dedication to pursue the WELL AP credential proves the growing importance of developing buildings with people's health and wellness at the centre of design," said Paul Scialla, founder of IWBI. "WELL Accredited Professionals will be at the forefront of this healthy building movement."

WELL Accredited Professionals have demonstrated proficiency in the field of design, health, and wellness in the built environment through the WELL AP exam. The exam is based on the expertise of leading industry practitioners, researchers and physicians, and was developed using GBCI's rigorous test development best practices. It is designed to test a candidate's knowledge and proficiency in building wellness and the principles, practices and applications of the WELL Building Standard.

The WELL Building Standard is optimised for commercial and institutional buildings and can be applied to three project typologies:

1. New and existing building
2. New and existing interiors
3. Core and shell compliance

About the WELL Building Standard™

The WELL Building Standard™ (WELL) is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying, and monitoring features of the built environment that impact the health and well-being of the people who live, work and learn in the buildings. WELL focuses on seven categories of building performance: air, water, nourishment, light, fitness, comfort and mind. Pioneered by Delos, the WELL Building Standard is grounded in evidence-based medical research that demonstrates the connection between the buildings where we spend more than 90% of our time and health and wellness impacts on us as occupants.
