Wellness is emerging as an important new trend
in building design and operations, one that builds
upon sustainability initiatives focusing in on the
health and well-being of people, and how
buildings can support that. This course will look
at some of the associated concepts, tools, and
frameworks that are emerging, including the new
WELL Rating System that is designed to
complement green building tools like LEED.
This course will provide participants with an
understanding of the issues related to wellness
in the built environment; strategies to promote
wellness in buildings; the tools available,
including the WELL Building Standard, to
support wellness in buildings; and how wellness
fits into standards like LEED.

“It will literally change the way we
live…designing spaces to solve
health problems before they're
created.”- FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON
IWBI was launched by Delos in 2013, following a Clinton Global Initiative
commitment by Delos founder Paul Scialla to improve the way people live
by developing spaces that enhance occupant health and quality of life by
sharing the WELL Building Standard globally.
The Clinton Global Initiative
WELL provides resources for
creating healthy environments. It
introduces a model for design and
construction that codifies best practices
and presents a performance-based
system for measuring, certifying and
monitoring features of the built
environment that impact human health.
THE INTERNATIONAL WELL BUILDING INSTITUTE (IWBI) has joined forces
with GREEN BUILDING CERTIFICATION INSTITUTE (GBCI)
to facilitate third- party certification services for WELL Certification
The IWBI administers certification under the WELL Building Standard in
collaboration with the Green Building Certification institute (GBCI), the same
organization that certifies LEED green buildings. GBCI will provide third-party
accreditation services through its collaboration with the IWBI.

THE WELLOGRAPHIES
A rich body of research supported the development of the underlying concepts and require-
ments of the WELL Building Standard. The content of the research will be available in published
WELLographies in early 2015. The WELLographies will provide the content and references for all
main topics that constitute the WELL Building Standard. All WELLographies are peer reviewed
by a medical team led by Dr. Michael Roizen, Chief Wellness Of cer of the Cleveland Clinic.

Corporate expenses when viewed over an extended period of time demonstrate that the majority of
expenses incurred within commercial buildings can be attributed to personnel costs. Addressing human
health in the built environment can reduce expenses associated with personnel while also throughout the
lifetime of the building.

The WELL Building Standard takes a holistic approach to health in the built
environment addressing behavior, operations and design.
Comprehensive Approach to Human Sustainability
The components of the WELL Building Standard represent a comprehensive set of
strategies organized by specific impacts on health and wellness. Many features of
the WELL Building Standard are ascribed to one or more of the following body
systems:
Wellness and the Body Systems
Within each of the seven concepts, the WELL Building Standard is
organized into Features. Features are divided into two categories:
Preconditions and Optimizations
Organization of the WELL Standard
WELL Building Standard
FEATURES
Preconditions(Required)
Optimizations(Optional)
1. REGISTRATION
2. DOCUMENTATION SUBMISSION
3. WELL COMMISSIONING
4. CERTIFICATION
5. RECERTIFICATION (not applicable for Core and Shell Compliance)
Process
The IWBI awards certification at three levels –
Silver, Gold, or Platinum. The WELL Building Standard is
organized by Features, and in order to achieve WELL
Certification at any level, projects must meet all
Precondition Features. To achieve higher levels of WELL
Certification, a project must successfully implement a
percentage of the Optimization Features.
Silver level certification is achieved by meeting 100% of
the Preconditions applicable to the typology.
Gold level certification is achieved by meeting 100% of
the Preconditions applicable to the typology, as well as
40% or more of the Optimizations.
Platinum level certification is achieved by meeting 100%
of the Preconditions applicable to the typology, as well as
80% or more of the Optimizations.
For Core and Shell projects, at least one Optimization in
each Concept is required for WELL Core and Shell
Compliance.
Certification Levels
WELL is like a NUTRITION
LABEL for your building. WELL
shows the ingredients that go into
a healthy building, home or
neighborhood.
