Our two-year degrees offer fully online courses, (which means you never need to set foot on our campus) in addition to providing hands-on skills with “real world” field projects and cultivating employment opportunities with local/regional employers. 

The Energy Management program will teach you how to evaluate energy use patterns, recommend energy efficiency techniques, integrate alternative energy sources, and perform systems analysis to solve problems - all very marketable skills used in the Energy Management (saving the human race) industry! ....and the labor market is vibrant! Don't wait to get into this program and find that degree that matches your environmental ethic! We are taking applications for classes now!!

More good news - We Have brought our Controls Option online as well! Our controls option develops skills in the above Energy Management defined skill set and then overlays digital Building Controls courses that provide students with the knowledge to manage and troubleshoot building automation systems to run more effectively.    

"Today’s controls workforce is responsible for delivering much more than reliable operations and/or expected temperature comfort to a particular building area."

The Water Conservation Technician Program trains individuals to evaluate water use patterns; develop, implement, market and maintain conservation programs; perform public outreach; recommend water efficiency techniques; integrate alternative water sources, and perform systems analysis to solve problems.

As water-related issues continue to increase, more voluntary and mandatory water conservation opportunities are being created that require a technical skillset like that which is offered within this program. Employment opportunities in Water Conservation are excellent. Students must consider the Western United States when seeking employment as those willing to relocate will have greater employment opportunities.

Don't wait to get into this program and find that degree that matches your environmental ethic! We are taking applications for classes now!!  Some classes require previous coursework and are offered sequentially.  Check with the Program Coordinator,  or 541-463-6160.
