My son was a natural born animal lover and always had a green thumb. So when it was time for him to take up college, I suggested that he might want to take up a course on the Environment.
Not very many people are familiar with what a professional environmentalist does. In some people's minds, they may be the aggressive lobbyists who would initiate rallies that promote the conservation of the environment thru the “green method”. There is more to it than that!
A course on the Environment teaches an individual the effective ways in conserving the environment by developing their skills in creating efficient and sustainable solutions. The environment does not only consist of taking care of the land alone. It also encompasses plants, marine and animal life. The course exposes the student to several environmental concerns and various aspects of conservation. The student learns how to manage the environment, come up with possible solutions to the problems related to their surroundings and the development of strategies for the sustainability of these solutions.
Having a career that is related to taking care of the environment is a noble job. You have a job that is quite prestigious and you are instrumental to contributing to the betterment of your society and in the world you live in. That was probably what convinced my son to consider a career as an environmentalist.
Fortunately, I found this online course on the internet and it is offered by no less than Lifestyle Learning Direct. He works during the day so taking the course in a time of his convenience was perfect for his schedules. This short course was only 8 modules long with 8 assignments. The flexibility of time it offered allowed him to finish the course even while he had a day job.
