Diploma in Environmental Restoration

Program Overview

The Environmental Restoration Diploma program prepares students to effectively assess, restore and rehabilitate terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Students will learn how they can support and contribute to sustainable resource management including the critical work of responsible environmental stewardship that includes healing and restoring the land. 
 

This program focuses on restoring sites disrupted by natural resource development such as oil and gas operations, coal mining, forestry, and hydropower development.  Through a combination of academic theory, applied projects and fieldwork, students learn about regulatory requirements and best practices for site restoration. Students will acquire the knowledge and practical skills necessary to assess environmental and wildlife impacts, plan restoration projects, and implement effective techniques that incorporate an understanding of the importance of traditional ecological knowledge.
