RMIT program for sustainable building design and construction
RMIT has launched a suite of vocational education skill sets to prepare the local building design and construction workforces for the clean economy future.
The three qualifications, known as the Sustainable Building Design Skill Sets, will provide existing and new workers with knowledge across sustainable building design, construction and retrofitting, and operations.
Skill sets are short courses for students looking to upskill, or to complement broader qualifications, including construction project management, architecture and industrial design.
The skill sets will be fee-free during the pilot in 2024, before they are assessed for possible continued delivery.
The skill sets have been developed with funding from the Victorian Government’s $6 million Clean Economy Workforce Capacity Building Fund.
