To give students real-life experiences the program includes remotely run lab exercises and a Challenge-Driven Learning Perspective in which learners work in large teams to attach a significant Grand Challenge that will help us to break the trend of Earth Overshoot Day create a more sustainable energy environment. Energy is at the heart of survivability of the "Spaceship Earth". Climate changes must be mitigated and poverty eradicated. Clean energy and water are of highest concern for the sustainability of our planet's limited resources. Every year the Earth Overshoot is earlier snd earlier. In 2022 it arrived already on July 28, and from this day we live on borrowed time. However, the Earth receives abundant renewable and sustainable energy resources per year from the sun to have a completely climate-neutral energy system. The challenge is to harvest this energy in an economical way and ensure that all energy-demanding resources follow a full sustainable circle. In CETE you will learn how the Earth's energy resources can be better captured and used more sustainable manners. Together we will be able to postpone the Earth Overshoot Day! The program is run with a number of global instructors. It is completely on line, with the "Flipped Classroom" perspective and using latest pedagogical techniques to enhance learning quality.
