Permaculture Design Certificate_ On Line
July 13- Oct 26, 2021
Due to COVID the Deanery is not able to offer an on-site Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) at this time. However we are excited to again affiliate with EAT (Earth Activist Training) to offer a full online course instead. Charles Williams, the Deanery’s Program Director and long time Earth Activist Training educator, and Starhawk (EAT founder and director), will instruct this program along with many inspiring guest presenters.
EAT has over 20 years of experience teaching permaculture and exploring solutions to the climate emergency, with a focus in spirit, organizing and activism. The PDC looks at how we can design systems that support humans and regenerate the natural world while using the least amount of energy and resources to create real abundance and social justice.
This is an internationally recognized certification program. Students who complete the course requirements will receive a Permaculture Design Certificate, recognized by PINA (Permaculture Institute of North America).
Tuesdays July 13th – October 26 – Live classes on Zoom 6:00-8:00 pm (Pacific Time) 10:00 pm-12:00 am (Atlantic Time). Video replay can be arranged if time change is not viable.
All fifteen live classes will be recorded for optional viewing at a later time. The live sessions include interactive exercises to help ground the presentations in hands-on ways. Each week students are assigned 2-3 hrs of homework and/ or hands-on projects, to complete the 72 hour certification requirements.
If interested please register here through the Deanery’s affiliate link. We have posted additional information on our FB Page that we hope you will share. The course includes live ASL (American Sign Language) interpretation.
In addition to the online program the Deanery will offer supporting on-site permaculture related workshops over the course of the year. Please call (902-845-1888) or write (thedeaneryproject@gmail.com) should you have any questions. We look forward to working with you on your permaculture journey!
