Before planning and creating new urban spaces, it is necessary to guarantee sustainability and the improvement of people's quality of life. Therefore, it is essential that before any project, ecosystem services are assessed using the most advanced devices and software.

In this way, obtaining results on air pollution, water contributions to aquifers or energy efficiency in the installation of certain lighting elements are key to the optimization of engineering actions. For this reason, TECH has designed this university qualification of 150 teaching hoursof intensive learning and by the hand of an excellent specialized teaching team.

A high level syllabus that will allow students to integrate in a short period of time the key concepts related to the measurement, quantification, valuation and mapping of ecosystem services. For this purpose, this academic institution provides pedagogical tools based on multimedia pills, case studies, specialized readings that can be accessed comfortably from any digital device with Internet connection and at any time of the day that students wish.

In addition, thanks to the Relearning learning methodology, the graduate will be able to assimilate the concepts addressed in a much simpler way and therefore reduce the long hours of study that are so frequent in other educational systems.

A unique opportunity to take firm steps towards professional progression through a convenient postgraduate certificate, which adjusts to the schedule of each student and also allows them to self-manage their time to access the syllabus and reconcile their daily personal activities. An unparalleled academic option in the current academic system.

With TECH you will have the facility to self-manage your study time and reconcile your personal life with a quality education”
