For our signature Behavior Centered Design for the Environment training, we offer all participants the freedom to opt into a course fee tier they feel is appropriate based on their personal and professional capacity. To make this program as accessible as possible for practitioners who lack the means to attend, we offer three tiers of course fees:

Course Fee $525

Discounted $200

Fee Waiver $0

The discounted fee and fee waiver tiers are aimed to ease the costs for those from small non-profit organizations, those from the Global South, and those who have limited access to professional development funds. Requests for fee waivers are determined on an individual basis. We take into account financial need, the potential for impact, and access to opportunity, as well as overall cohort diversity.

You should apply to the course fee tier you can afford without burdening yourself or your organization. In order to keep our training offerings sustainable, we are able to offer more invitations to applicants who apply under the full tuition tier.
