Hi,
Was wondering if anyone could provide any resources on schools that have any type of educational/training program geared towards increasing staff/faculty/administrative sustainability investment in their offices and departments? My institution is looking to develop ways to reduce energy usage and increase sustainable practices with the professors and staff, not just students, on our campus and beginning in academic departments seems like a possible approach.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Hi there. I got on the website today to discuss a similar issue. I design online courses for educators regarding sustainability. I'm looking for a host for a MOOC (massive open online course) for faculty and also students whose careers will involve educating others about the environment, social justice, CSR, etc. For more info check out the discussion here.
Sincerely,

Hi Sarah,
We have a resource of campus green office programs (AASHE member resource) that I think would be helpful to you. These programs take different forms, including student-run programs and staff training programs to make administrative areas more energy efficient. An AASHE blog article on green office programs is also available here. In addition, an article discussing and highlighting other exemplary campus green office programs is available here.
