Certificates in Sustainability
GEF Institute certificates are comprised of online education that provide big
   picture analysis and local application of important concepts to foster
                awareness and enthusiasm for sustainability.

                                       •    Earning a certificate boosts credibility in the
                                            workplace or classroom and provides the
                                            foundational knowledge for successful
                                            sustainability initiatives or behavior change
                                            campaigns.

                                       •    Distinct levels of certificates in sustainability
                                            concepts motivate participants to take
                                            incremental steps toward sustainability literacy
                                            and action.

                                       •    Some courses required for certificates are eligible
                                            for professional development (CEUs) or academic

2011 Testimonials
"This has been a tremendously rich experience. I am impressed and happy with the resources you have
provided." – Course Participant

"Great course! I learned a lot and was impressed with the quality of the information, expertise and resources,
variety of content, the videos, etc. It was user friendly" – Course Participant

"This could well be the most engaging sustainability course I have taken (either online or face-to-face). Nicely
presented, well organized and completely pertinent I found it very worthwhile." – Course Participant

"I loved the course. It enabled me to feel more confident about moving forward with sustainability at my school."
Course Participant

"The videos are fabulous and just the right length. The questions and material are thought provoking and thus
effective. I find this course so engrossing that I often do not see time fly by and suddenly I realize I have been
working on it for 3 hours! I also had hesitations about on-line courses in general, but now I am 'sold.'" – Course
Participant

"I think these units are terrific. I can't wait to incorporate these ideas into my already green classroom.” – Course
Participant

"I have never seen a course on Moodle as nice as this." - Course Participant

I learned a lot and was impressed with the quality of the information, expertise and resources, variety of content, the videos, etc. It was user friendly" – Course Participant "This could well be the most engaging sustainability course I have taken (either online or face-to-face). Nicely presented, well organized and completely pertinent I found it very worthwhile." – Course Participant "I loved the course. It enabled me to feel more confident about moving forward with sustainability at my school." Course Participant "The videos are fabulous and just the right length. The questions and material are thought provoking and thus effective. I find this course so engrossing that I often do not see time fly by and suddenly I realize I have been working on it for 3 hours! I also had hesitations about on-line courses in general, but now I am 'sold.'" – Course Participant "I think these units are terrific. I can't wait to incorporate these ideas into my already green classroom.” – Course Participant "I have never seen a course on Moodle as nice as this." - Course Participant Copyright © 2012 GEF Institute.
