Description

This certificate is intended for people interested in energy and environmental issues; in particular the questions of healthy buildings and energy management (energy efficiency, energy saving and protection of the environment and human health in a perspective of local autonomy and the use of "appropriate" technologies between). We target topics specific to residential housing and small commercial buildings. The certificate therefore aims at the development of a general culture and professional improvement in the field of energy and more specifically of renewable energy resources and healthy building.
