Clean Energy Business Management

Program Overview

This program is designed to train a new wave of clean/renewable energy executives. The program will provide engineers and IT professionals with the skills and knowledge necessary to help them step into the business or start a new business in clean/renewable energy. This program combines the Willis College Marketing & Business Management Certificate and the Renewable Energy Project Analysis Certificate (RS100). This program is the first of its kind in Canada, and is ideal not only for people with outdated skills who are unable to find work in IT or Engineering, but it is also especially relevant for engineers from all disciplines (civil engineering, mechanical engineering, etc.), new highly qualified immigrants and people who want to make a transition into a greener career.
