SUMMARY:iPolytek - How Sustainable is PV Solar Power? An Intro to Life Cycle Analysis and Planetary Boundaries - Online Course
DESCRIPTION:If you search “solar photovoltaic sustainability” on the internet\, you will find a multitude of articles hailing the technology as green\, clean and ready to spearhead our world into a sustainable future. However\, you will also come across articles that are much more critical of the technology. This begs the question\, “How does one go about accessing the environmental impacts of a technology in a systematic\, objective way?” We answer this question using PV solar power as a case study. \nIn this course\, we study an LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) of solar photovoltaic power and learn of its impacts on human health\, freshwater\, climate change\, ecosystems and land use. We compare the environmental performance of solar PV to other renewable and non-renewable electricity generation technologies. Finally\, we take an in-depth look at a scientific article in which researchers show how countries can determine their optimal energy mix given their available resources and environmental objectives. \nTime: 4-hour self-paced course. Access this course online 24/7 for up to 2 years. \nLocation: Online – Register anytime and gain immediate access \nClick here for more information and to register.

SUMMARY:Mental Health First Aid Standard (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a nationally recognized certification course developed by the Mental Health Commission of Canada.  The course aims to develop the skills of participants in providing help to a person experiencing a mental health and/or substance use problem or crisis. Just like physical first aid is provided until medical treatment can be obtained\, MHFA is given until appropriate support is found or until the crisis is resolved. \nThe virtual course is delivered in a blended learning format. \nSelf-Directed Learning \nTwo weeks prior to the course start date\, participants will receive log-in details for the Learning Management System. In the two weeks leading up to the facilitator led virtual classrooms\, participants must complete: \n\nModule One – self directed learning (2hrs)\nSelf directed reading of the participant reference guide ~150 pages (3hrs)\n\nFacilitator Led Virtual ZOOM Classrooms \n\nModule Two –  facilitator led session (3.5hrs) **3.25hrs plus break time** [1-430pm CST (SK Time)]\nModule Three – facilitator led session (3.5hrs) **3.25hrs plus break time**[1-430pm CST (SK Time)]\n\nTechnology considerations: Each participant is requited to have a device with audio and video capabilities for the ZOOM virtual classroom sessions. \nClick here for more information and to register.
