HCC offers new sustainability certificate
Hawaii Community College is offering a new Academic Subject Certificate (ASC) in Sustainability starting in this fall that aims to equip students with the skills and knowledge to help address some of today’s biggest challenges.
“The need for individuals with knowledge about sustainability is growing, in our island communities, in our world, and in our workforce,” said Hawaii Community College Sustainability Initiatives Coordinator Charlotte Cheek. “Graduates with this certificate will learn how to be part of the solution. No matter what career you are pursuing, sustainability is a valuable component.”
Like sustainability itself, the Sustainability Academic Subject Certificate is interdisciplinary, and the certificate encompasses Hawaii’s geography, traditional sustainable practices, climate change and mitigation science, aloha aina, and more.
