We Teach Sustainable Project Management. We Practise It Too.
Sustainable project management is the discipline of delivering projects without draining the people, communities and resources they depend on. At Regeneration — School of Sustainable Projects, we teach that discipline to project professionals in Ireland, and we hold our own business to the same standard.
A design constraint, not a slide in the deck
Sustainability shapes how this school runs: how we deliver training, who we work with, and how we measure our impact. We make the choices a genuinely sustainable organisation would make, even when they are slower or less convenient than the alternative.
The standard we teach is the standard we run on.
Six practices, kept deliberately small
Thoughtful delivery, in person and online
Core skills get built in the room, so in-person training runs in central venues reachable by public transport, supplied by local, sustainability-minded partners wherever possible. Online cohorts run alongside them, cutting travel and its emissions for learners joining from across Ireland.
Pro Bono impact, not just theory
Every learner completes real project work for a non-profit through the Pro Bono Lab, so the social value of each course lands outside the classroom, not just inside it.
Paperless by default
Enrolment, course materials, certificates and communication are entirely digital — no printed workbooks, no physical mailers.
Lean by design
Operations stay small and deliberate: tools, suppliers and systems chosen for what we actually need, rather than what is biggest or most convenient.
Accountable pricing
Founding cohort pricing exists to make the course accessible earlier, without discounting the standard we deliver to.
Honest reporting
We are a young organisation and don’t claim to have this solved. This page is updated as our practices — and our measurement of them — mature.

The P5 Standard, in plain words
Our curriculum is built on the GPM P5 Standard for Sustainability in Project Management — a framework that weighs every project against five dimensions.
Graduates carry this framework into live delivery as Certified Sustainable Project Professionals (CSPP™) — a credential backed by GPM Global and the Project Management Institute (PMI).
Four UN Sustainable Development Goals we act on
Quality Education
Accredited, practical training that turns real experience into recognised capability.
Decent Work & Economic Growth
Verified project hours and credentials that open real roles for people already doing the work.
Sustainable Cities & Communities
Pro Bono Lab projects delivered for non-profits and community organisations across Ireland.
Partnerships for the Goals
Working with GPM Global, PMI and Siel Bleu Ireland so each cohort’s work lands where it is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is sustainable project management?
Sustainable project management is the practice of planning, delivering and closing projects in a way that protects the people, communities and resources they affect — measured across dimensions like the GPM P5 Standard (People, Planet, Prosperity, Process, Product) rather than schedule and budget alone.
How does Regeneration practise sustainability as a business?
Through six working practices: in-person training in venues reachable by public transport alongside online cohorts that cut learner travel, real pro bono project delivery for non-profits through the Pro Bono Lab, fully digital materials and certificates, deliberately lean operations, accountable founding-cohort pricing, and honest public reporting that is updated as our measurement matures.
Which UN Sustainable Development Goals does Regeneration support?
Our work connects most directly to four: SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals), through accredited training, verified project hours and live non-profit partnerships including Siel Bleu Ireland.
What is the GPM P5 Standard?
The P5 Standard is a sustainability framework from GPM Global that assesses a project’s impact across five dimensions — People, Planet, Prosperity, Process and Product. It underpins the CSPP™ certification and the curriculum at Regeneration — School of Sustainable Projects.
