Q: Can someone tell me about NARI's Green Remodeling Program?

I was recently told by a contractor that he went through the NARI Green Remodeling Program. I know NARI is the National Association of the Remodeling Industry. But, what does this program entail? Can someone explain what this certification really means? Should I take this as a sign that my contractor is up to date on the latest green and sustainable home products and materials? ...I went to the NARI website, but I wasn't really satisfied with the level of detail there about this program. Thanks.
