Course overview

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) 

Postgraduate diplomas and qualifications

In an ever evolving workplace, a commitment to CPD can support your career and help you to achieve your potential.

CAT has specialised in sustainable innovation for over 40 years. The latest evolution is Masters courses offering a range of pathways focused on the area of sustainability you are looking to work in.

The Postgraduate qualifications are available from:

  • MSc Sustainability and Adaptation - for a broad base in sustainability
  • MSc Sustainability and Adaptation Planning - for strategists and planners
  • MSc Sustainability and Adaptation in the Built Environment - for builders, developers and architectural technicians

Now, you can use this same material for your continuing professional development. Completion of two Masters level modules will give you a postgraduate qualification, or keep building your credits to work towards a higher qualification up to full Masters degree.

For more information, complete the enquiry form on the right or to apply select the course you are most interested in from the list above.

Courses on renewable energy, environmentally friendly building techniques, and water and sanitation solutions can help you learn more about sustainable ways of living, and allow you to put your ideas into practice.
