BREAZE

The National Centre for Sustainability at Ballarat University is offering the Diploma of Sustainability in Ballarat beginning in April 2012. This a nationally recognised qualification. Many new work opportunities which incorporate sustainability are emerging across a range of industries. Our graduates can be found in a variety of occupations such as manufacturing, retail, child care, building, local government, teaching, horticulture and more, that use the skills and knowledge that the Diploma of Sustainability provides.

"I think that my position on the front page is really a representation of all the people that have contributed to BREAZE's fantastic work in terms of getting the renewable energy message out in the community and dealing with the larger picture of climate change."

If you've seen this year's Yellow Pages, you might have noticed Nick Lanyon features on the front cover, thus spreading the BREAZE message far and wide. Go Nick!

Each year, Sensis, the publisher of the Yellow Pages®, recognises the contribution of local residents in the community by featuring them on the cover of its books.

The theme for this year’s covers, Australians Creating a Better Future, recognises people throughout Australia who have made a positive contribution to their community through projects or initiatives that help to make a better future for Australia. These projects have contributed environmentally, economically and/or socially to the local community and will benefit the next generation of Australians.
