Environment & Sustainability
WAES is expanding its curriculum offer for the 2024/25 academic year, recognising the green sector’s need for a growing, diverse workforce, across areas like retrofit assessment and building information modelling. Qualifications in the specialised skills required to work in this growing sector will be taught in our new Green Skills Innovation Centre, linked to our Lisson Grove centre, featuring state-of-the-art facilities and equipment including an immersive teaching space.
In the meantime, we already offer the Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Climate Change and Environment as a Distance Learning course, which you can view below.
The Green Live Learning Lab is about using your local area to learn about sustainability. We will learn how we can help the environment through changing how we live in our homes, and we will visit local sites to see examples of this.
Level 1 in Solar Photovoltaic aims to provide you with a foundational understanding of solar energy, the environmental benefits, its application and its potential of transforming the solar energy into electricity. As the demand for sustainable energy grows, understanding solar energy and solar systems is extremely important in order to contribute to a sustainable future that is powered by the sun.
