#117 Graduate Certificate in Sustainable Building
Addressing the sustainability challenges within the building and construction industry involves fundamentally transforming how buildings are conceived, designed and constructed. And that transformation needs a workforce equipped with essential knowledge, skills and capabilities to navigate and build resilience in a climate-affected world through targeted education and training.
This project aims to develop a Graduate Certificate in Sustainable Building. This post-graduate qualification will provide a high-level, targeted course of study, offering advanced knowledge and practical application skills crucial for accelerating Australia’s transition towards low-carbon, circular and more sustainable building practices.
