PCGS Students Earn Career Certifications :

One of the Patel College of Global Sustainability's main focuses is student success. PCGS, in conjunction with community partners, is offering workshops sponsored by the college. These are to help students earn certifications, which will support their future career success.

There are numerous sustainability certifications but the two which PCGS is offering this spring are Envision & LEED GA. Both can be attained by taking the required exams after the training has been provided.

The LEED GA credential designates individuals who have a documented, up-to-date understanding of the most current green building principles and practices. This certification is a foundational credential before attaining more advanced certifications such as the LEED AP with specialty. Having this certification is very important to student success, which is why PCGS sponsored these workshops.

Envision helps provide guidance to initiate systemic change in the planning, design, and delivery of sustainable and resilient infrastructure. Fundamentally, Envision is about supporting high performance through more sustainable choices in infrastructure development.

Both of these certifications will help students succeed after graduation!
