Renewable energy is expected to provide almost 50% of the world's electricity by 2050 and will require investments exceeding $10 trillion to produce the required 12-Terawatt expansion, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. The Leaders in Energy Sustainability training program will produce highly qualified energy and sustainability professionals ready to ensure Canada's role as a global leader in the emerging energy revolution. Trainees will gain a unique set of credentials that combine technical expertise, industry insight, research, and communication skills, as well as professional and business skills that will enable them to navigate the societal, business, and regulatory environments linked to renewable energy development and its successful deployment. The combination of these skills, knowledge, and experience will prepare them to move into high-level decision-making and management roles in a range of industrial, government, and academic sectors. The program will be flexible by providing a range of paths for trainees to explore cutting edge research and professional environments, all while providing a solid foundation of research and communication skills required to be successful in a fast-paced energy future as CEOs, CTOs, deputy ministers, chief engineers, regulators, policy analysts, to name a few.
