What does it mean to be resourceful?

The world needs innovators who understand the critical link between energy and water. Being resourceful means being aware of how you use these resources, then choosing to use them responsibly.

Take the first step.

Resourcefulness is a free online course covering water and energy, their relationships, and technical and non-technical solutions to problems facing the world today. You’ll learn about the water-energy nexus, and how they affect one another. We’ll also cover the environmental and social impacts of changing water and energy availability. The course concludes by exploring possible solutions to some of these major issues.

When you complete the free course, you’ll receive the Resourcefulness Digital Badge, a recognized credential that demonstrates achievement and readiness for opportunities in the energy and water sectors. The badge can strengthen college applications, support career entry, or demonstrate expertise for advancement in industry.

I found the entire course to be truly enlightening, particularly the insights into the amount of water required for power generation. I believe the course would be an excellent addition to the new-hire orientation, as it provides a strong foundation and shared understanding of our industry. Completing the Resourcefulness course left me with a renewed sense of purpose and deeper appreciation for the meaningful work we do to create a more resourceful world.
