Eco Achevers, an educational provider of online courses on renewable energy, green building, and sustainable living is seeking course authors.  Their audiences include both the general public looking to lead more sustainable lives, as well as professionals such as LEED APs looking for specific training on implementing sustainability.  Class topics that raise basic or general awareness of sustainability appropriate towards consumers can be distributed through their network of over 250 community colleges. More advanced courses dealing with “how to” or implementation of sustainability can appeal to green building trades or sustainability professionals.

They help people with course development or speaking experience in a classroom translate their sustainability message to online training delivered over the internet. Our e-learning courses can be as short as an hour, or as long as necessary to get your message across. Compensation for course developers is based on a percentage of fees received from paying students.

If you are wondering how an online course might look, you can download their Course Submission Template (in .ppt format) or you can view a free sample course, LEED Accreditation Levels in 2009.  For more information, contact EcoAchievers
