Portland, OR — The Fast Track five-day series has been developed in response to an increasing number of inquiries for this type of intensive learning format.

In order to be awarded the Certificate of Completion, participants need to attend 65 contact hours or ten one-day workshops. To receive the Principles of Sustainability, participants need to attend 23 contact hours or five one-day workshops.

We are planning to offer at least two Fast Track five-day sessions per academic year, to accommodate our students working toward receiving the Certificate of Completion.

Fast Track schedule

All sessions take place from 8:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m. at the historic White Stag Block in downtown Portland, OR.
