Seeking to elevate your sustainability degree program? AASHE’s six-month Program Directors’ Cohort begins this November, offering a unique opportunity for program leaders to assess and enhance their program offerings. This cohort is designed for directors seeking to align their curriculum with the latest sustainability education standards while addressing key challenges such as interdisciplinary integration and resource management. Over six months, you’ll collaborate with peers and receive expert guidance from facilitators, helping you refine your program’s strengths and prepare for the future. Whether you’re looking to update your curriculum, improve pedagogy, or strengthen your program’s impact, this cohort offers the tools, insights, and support you need. Don’t miss this opportunity!
Join AASHE and partners for the Campus Decarbonization Academy, a cohort-based program designed to equip sustainability, energy, and facilities managers, as well as business officers and campus planners, with the skills and strategies to lead decarbonization efforts. This program will provide practical knowledge on renewable energy, electrification, and energy-efficient technologies, while also focusing on building stakeholder buy-in. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with experts and peers, share best practices, and learn how to access key funding sources, including federal and state resources like IRA funds. The Academy will help institutions navigate the complex process of decarbonization, offering actionable solutions to support long-term climate action. Applications are now available for this spring 2025 program!
