So to be clear...

The new process is you become a green associate first a more general exam then you choose a more specific area to get your LEED AP in, such as O&M?

LEED Green Associate First Then LEED AP

The LEED Green Associate is required before proceeding to a LEED AP Speciality exam.  Our live instruction LEED Green Associate classes come with 20-30 hours of self-study materials and we recommend that students study with for 2-3 weeks after the course.  At the end of the exam, you know immediately whether or not you've passed the exam so you can then start to focus on the LEED AP specialty of your choice.
 
 
Technically, you can take both the LEED GA and a LEED AP exam in the same four hour sitting.  However, each exam is independently difficult enough and, if you take them together and fail either one, then the GBCI awards neither credential.  So if you took the exams simultaneously and even if you pass the LEED GA exam but failed the LEED BD&C exam, you would not have earned LEED GA.  Unfortunately, these are the testing rules and, besides, who would really want to have the unwanted stress of studying for both tests at the same time?

Are there progressive steps to accreditation?

I am a Project Manager for a commercial GC, do I have to take the associate exam prior to attempting the AP O+M exam?

The Green Associate is Required before taking a LEED Exam

The Green Associate is required taking your LEED Exam.  You can take the exams in the same four hour sitting but we do not recommend that approach.   Instead, we recommend that you take the exams separately so that you can adequately prepare for each exam.  Additionally, according to the GBCI exam rules, if you take the exams together and fail either one, then you would earn neither credential.
