Learning Pathways
Local RegenCAN Chapters offer many sponsored practical and theoretical learning pathways. Although most courses only cost 1 FD+ (as proof of RegenCAN status), some may require a slightly higher fee.
The core RegenCAN learning platform is the Regenerative Systems Design Course — RSD Course. Rescue Earth will be offering 10,000 free course memberships to qualifying RegenCAN members.
The RSD Course is a blend of online content that is provided by international experts — this being: course content, additional reading & videos, online tutoring — and in-person practicals where participants apply what they have learnt into a Rescue Earth volunteer project of their choice. The many modules can be studied as stand alone courses.
