Engineers Canada partnered with Polytechnique Montréal and to develop a free massive open online course (MOOC) based on our National Guideline on Sustainable Development and Environmental Stewardship for Engineers https://engineerscanada.ca/publications/national-guideline-on-sustainable-development-and-environmental-stewardship.
It’s been taken by close to 4,600 people worldwide to great reviews, and uses engineering case studies from across Canada to demonstrate the practical application of the SD and ES principles as explained in our national guideline. The course is available at no cost except if you want a Certificate of Completion with successful completion which costs $75. It consists of four modules and takes about 8 hours to complete at your own pace. It includes quizzes and a final exam to evaluate learning outcomes. The link to registration is:
