The 3 foundational modules cover an introduction to Sustainability and its 3 pillars, introductions to System Thinking and themes related to life cycle value and carbon measurements.
Module 1 defines and expands the term 'Sustainability' and how it applies to strategic and daily decisions.
Module 2 defines and measures Value; we expand on the definition of value in projects, how to target and measure the issues that matter most, and ensure maximum return on investment for a sustainable result.
Module 3 introduces the Net Zero and Whole Life Carbon terms and defines what these are and how they relate to corporate commitments, daily projects and real estates strategies.
