Online Courses

Accredited Training and Short Courses

Whether you’re interested in polishing up your existing skills, looking for a career change, or simply wishing to expand your knowledge of sustainability and environmental matters, our online courses will provide you with a high quality learning experience.

As long as you have access to a computer and an internet connection you can learn what you need to learn, at your own pace, in your own environment: at home, at a friend's place, at work or even in a café. Simply log into your account and continue your course where you left off last time and work through the curriculum at your own pace.

Online training does not mean ‘working alone’

You are not alone and if you ever require any further assistance, one of our qualified, industry experienced facilitators will be able to assist. In addition to this some of our courses have active discussion groups set up online where students can interact and learn from each other.

Flexible start dates

Our online courses begin at regular intervals so you can enrol at a time that is convenient to you. Providing you complete all tasks by the due dates set you have the flexibility to develop a study pattern that suits your work/study/life balance.
