Program details

Overview

This micro-credential trains professionals to deliver low-impact buildings aimed at net-zero energy and carbon targets. It examines strategies that strengthen a building's resilience, such as reducing dependence on energy grids and improving its ability to withstand climate-related events, and shows how these same strategies also cut carbon by reducing reliance on carbon-emitting energy and new materials.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This micro-credential has no formal application; BCIT states that students register for its three required courses (XRGN 4515, 4525 and 4535) individually, each of which carries no academic prerequisite, and email the program contact with their name, student number and mailing address after completing all three to receive the credential. BCIT recommends, without requiring, a background in Construction or Building Design, a degree in Environmental Engineering or a related field, or employment and experience in building trades and construction with the ability to read building plans and specifications. No minimum GPA or English/French language test score is published. The program is not available to international students.

Application Details

Start Date: September, January and April

Application Deadline: BCIT publishes common credential application dates for most cohort-based diplomas, degrees and Flexible Learning routes, though each program's own page governs: for the January 2027 intake domestic applications run 1 February 2026 to 2 January 2027 and international to 1 November 2026; for the April 2027 intake domestic runs 1 May 2026 to 1 April 2027 and international to 1 February 2027; for September 2027 domestic applications open 1 October 2026 and close 1 September 2027, international 2 July 2027. Openings are 9:00 am and deadlines 11:59 pm Pacific Time, moving to the next business day on a weekend. Admission is not institute-wide rolling, but many programs work first-qualified-first-accepted and can fill before the posted deadline, and several programs, mostly in Health Sciences, trades and graduate studies, run entirely separate application tables of their own. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
