According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the environmental profession is one of the fastest growing job markets with the expected growth of more than 10,000 job openings over the next decade in the U.S. alone. Within the industry, Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment (or ESA) is the most common environmental consulting service for commercial real estate due diligence because it helps potential purchasers identify environmental risks associated with properties, assists them in making informed decisions during acquisition and development, and protect them from potential future liabilities.

In this course, you will learn fundamental principles of Phase 1 ESA made simple and fun through intuitive concepts and engaging visuals. This course is designed to help you grasp the industry standard of Phase 1 ESA with no prior knowledge or skills needed. You won't see many jargons or long paragraphs. Instead, you will learn the key takeaways in step-by-step guidance to truly understand the practical essentials of Phase 1 ESA.

The course will prepare you with the strong foundation to jumpstart your career in environmental consulting which is driven by our society's ever increasing environmental awareness as well as the passages and implementations of environmental laws and regulations. As a result, you will finish this course feeling like you have completed a mini-internship and attain the knowledge and skills to successfully conduct a Phase 1 ESA.

Upon completion of this course, you will know how to:

  • Acquire environmental information and data for the Phase 1 ESA.

  • Determine topographic gradient by reading topographic map.

  • Review regulatory database search results to identify regulatory suspects.

  • Analyze aerial images to detect historical changes in urban landscapes.

  • Examine fire insurance maps to discover past activities.

  • Create a coherent historical timeline by integrating various historical sources and extract useful information to identify historical suspects.

  • Conduct site visit and evaluate site observations to ascertain the current condition of property.

  • Establish the outcomes of Phase 1 ESA with appropriate recommendations and final report.

It's best to follow this course sequentially because the knowledge of a lesson is built upon the previous one. While learning, you can ask questions for further clarifications. In addition, Google Earth will be used as a relevant learning tool in this course.
