IGP EDUCATION
The "General Comprehensive Course: Sustainable Development Literacy for Professionals"
is roughly equivalent to a one-semester graduate level course at a regionally accredited
university in the United States.
The course is both comprehensive and academically rigorous.
Prior to the development of this course, IGP was engaged in a 9-month process of developing
a consensus document to define the basic multidisciplinary sustainable development
knowledge needed for individuals working and teaching in professional specialties of
architecture, land use planning, landscape architecture, engineering, real property valuation,
accounting and law. The contents of this course are the result of this consensus document.
The consensus is a live document that will be utilized for the continued updating of this
course and therefore comments are welcome.
This course utilizes two (2) core texts:
The Natural Advantage of Nations: Business Opportunities, Innovation and Governance in the 21st Century co-authored and edited by Karlson “Charlie” Hargroves & Michael H. Smith
An Introduction to Sustainable Development by Peter P. Rogers, Kazi F. Jalal & John A. Boyd
Upon completion of the IGP Member Application, the course Study Guide will be emailed to you. At a later date, you will be emailed an invitation to access the course examination.
