My partner is looking into going back to school for a masters in sustainability management. He is looking at a program through the Harvard Extension School Sustainability Management certificate. I’m wondering if anyone has done this? Or recommends a program they hear good things about? Preferably online so we don’t have to move! TIA!

I’m doing a certificate program at UVA, a bit less comprehensive than a masters but could be a good gateway into the field if that’s what they are trying to do

I did a masters in sustainability management at U Toronto in Canada. The equivalent is the program at Columbia in the US. Not sure about available certificate programs.

Does a masters from Harvard Extension School come with the same perks, open the same doors as regular Harvard? I’m guessing there’s always going to be a difference but seems like a good deal (it’s cheaper than some state schools) with a semi-prestigious datapoint to add to the resume? Would love to hear from folks who’ve done it.

Anyone been asked to prepare a slide presentation for an interview about a recent deal you handled describing legal issues etc?
