Skills you’ll gain

The opening material introduces regenerative enterprise and uses Solar Punk storytelling to imagine different futures. The course then asks learners to examine business as part of a living system rather than as an isolated transaction.
A substantial section focuses on the founder’s mindset. It invites learners to work from their own experience and interests before moving toward an idea. This is early-stage exploration; it does not validate demand, environmental impact or commercial viability.
The beginner course runs for 1 hour 6 minutes across four sections. No technical or sustainability background is required, only a device for viewing and an interest in environmental problem solving.
After the course, write a one-page problem note describing who experiences the issue, what evidence is available and what unintended effects a proposed solution could create. Interviews and small tests should come before major spending.
