Let’s drop the small talk and get down to business.

What is the value for you as an employee in becoming a Sustainability Officer? 

As a Sustainability Officer, you will help lower the costs expended by your business and therefore improve the companies bottom line. You will be proactive in helping the environment to become cleaner and greener, therefore assisting businesses to gain a better reputation amongst future and current customers.

You will be a valued employee able to complete the following tasks:

- Conduct emissions audits
- Implement sustainability plans
- Measuring your carbon footprint
- Develop regulated sustainability reports
- Conduct sustainable energy and water audits

**What are some of the expected career outcome?**

- Sustainability Advisor
- Environmental Officer
- Sustainability Manager
- Sustainability Coordinator
- Environmental Consultant

**How much can you earn as a Sustainability Graduate?**

 

[seek.com.au ](https://www.seek.com.au/career-advice/role/sustainability-officer/salary)estimates that you can earn up to $110k per year on your entry levels. The truth is that the more you learn, the more you earn. So why not get yourself into a career where you can help to change the world?

**How do you become a sustainability professional?

**We believe that every business should have at least one qualified Sustainability Officer. By studying the Diploma of Sustainable Operation with us you can become this person. During the course, you will have the opportunity to rub shoulders with some of our industry partners and gain access to paid/unpaid traineeships, online support, and will complete projects with workplace applications. We offer face to face delivery at our Byron Bay campus and online via our learning platform for those unable to attend campus.

Envirotech Education are the original pioneers of the Diploma of Sustainable Operations. We are multiple award winners mostly due to the hard work we put into this course. This has given us the opportunity to be the only school in Australia that has been granted 100% Commonwealth funding for the most iconic scholarship program in Australia. As part of the program, Envirotech Education is offering full scholarships in the Diploma of Sustainable Operations for domestic students.
