Make sustainability a core value in your organization

The Summer Institute in Sustainability is an intensive professional development program targeted to administrators in colleges and universities, state and local governments, and corporations who wish to learn how to develop organization-wide sustainability policies, procedures and projects. The program is offered by the University of British Columbia (UBC) in partnership with the University of Washington (UW).

Is your organization developing sustainability plans? Are you helping make sustainability a core operating principle within your business, public agency or campus? If so, the Summer Institute in Sustainability is designed for you.

The institute takes place over five days at the UBC Vancouver Point Grey campus and includes:

• Seminars from sustainability professionals with expertise in developing and managing sustainability programs
  
  
• Case studies exploring the challenges and successes of sustainability initiatives
  
  
• Field studies examining practical, real-life sustainability projects
  
  
• Open space dialogue and opportunities for networking
