GREEN STUDENTS PROGRAM

The Green Students Program, undertaken as a voluntary program with the sole purpose of generating awareness among the next generation of professionals. Green Technologies has had more than 250 students participate in their green awareness lectures so far, with the intent of converting these budding professionals to Go Green.

Green Technologies firmly belives that spreading awareness and interest among the next generation is key to a Green Future. Students have been provided an insight or an internship at our office, during which they grasp the general concept of the evolution and growth of the Green Building Industry.

 As part of this program, Green Technologies has held seminars at the American University of Sharjah (AUS), Sharjah, UAE, emphasizing on Energy and Water conservation and focusing on the LEED Rating System. These seminars are attended by the graduate and under-graduate students of the university as well as the Professors and Alumni of the American University of Sharjah.
