The post-graduate certificate in Sustainable Business Leadership is your gateway to the rapidly growing field of sustainability leadership and climate action. The program has been designed to equip you with the knowledge, skills, and hands-on experience needed to lead organizations towards more sustainable operations and deploy clean tech solutions.
The program's comprehensive curriculum and variety of delivery methods will enable students to expand on conventional business success metrics to include a triple bottom line approach that enables them to measure and improve an organization’s contributions to planetary health, social well-being and a just economy.
By exploring topics such as foundational environmental science, emerging energy systems, business plans development, data analytics and strategies to lead through positive change, the program will provide you with the knowledge, skills, and hands-on experience to lead organizations toward more sustainable operations.
From setting, tracking, and reporting on sustainability metrics to collaborating with multiple stakeholders and rights-holders on innovative projects, to managing organizational change and communicating that change, Sustainable Business Leadership graduates will acquire the skill set needed to drive solutions within organizations and businesses that address current climate change and sustainability challenges.
Course content, projects and experiential learning opportunities provide students with a window into multiple sectors especially relevant to the Atlantic region, such as agriculture, fisheries, aquaculture, transportation, buildings, industry, and waste, with a special focus on clean technology.
