Maximize Your Learning with Insightful Feedback From Industry Pros

Our challenge-based learning format allows you to immediately apply what you learned in real-world scenarios. Each Impact Certificate is made up of three challenges. You’ll work with other learners and experts in a global community to develop you competencies and network. In your Impact Certificate, you will solve these three challenges:
1
Foundations for E-Mobility
2
From Recycling to Circular Economy
3
Battery Reuse, Repair, Recycling

Each certificate gets you closer to a full degree...

Completing an Impact Certificate gives you 15 ECTS credits that can be applied towards a Bachelor's or Master's Degree program, giving you a head start on your educational journey and path to becoming a lifelong learner.

Challenge 1
Foundations for E-Mobility
Explore e-mobility value chains, identify issues and opportunities, and develop sustainable solutions. You will reflect on societal impacts and research existing e-mobility companies. By the end of this course, you will be able to describe the e-mobility value chain and identify its key components and processes.
Challenge 2
From Recycling to Circular Economy
Examine recycling and the circular economy in established industries. You will analyze products, evaluate recycling processes and propose circular solutions. Through analyzing an existing product, its lifecycle and bottlenecks, you will develop ideas to improve the lifecycle of its materials.
Challenge 3
Battery Reuse, Repair, Recycling
Learn about OEMs (original equipment manufacturer). Within the automotive industry, this refers to any company that manufactures cars or automotive parts. Building upon the knowledge of the e-mobility value chain and seeing how the 9R framework is applied in other industries, you will be able to propose alternative actions for handling batteries at the end of their first life.
