The CBCI EDGE curriculum distinguishes clearly between eligibility to attend the EDGE Expert training and eligibility to be licensed or recognized as an EDGE Expert. For attending the training itself, the curriculum states that there is no formal prerequisite regarding qualifications. This is because the training is designed to be accessible to a wide range of participants, including professionals who may support EDGE projects indirectly, students, and stakeholders who want to understand the EDGE standard and the certification process.

The stricter requirements such as having a bachelor’s degree or having specific construction industry experience relate to later steps in the pathway, especially when a participant aims to progress from training attendance to formal credentialing, licensing, or professional recognition as an EDGE Expert. In other words, options B, C, and D reflect possible qualification pathways for becoming eligible for the credential, not for simply joining the training. Therefore, when the question asks specifically about the eligibility requirement to attend an EDGE Expert training, the correct answer is that there is no prerequisite regarding qualifications.
