| 15 Nov 2006
: Johnson Controls has launched the Web-based version of its Sustainable Energy Education & Communications (SEEC) employee training and communications program. The Web-based version of SEEC, which already has been purchased by several organizations, contains 10 learning modules and requires high-speed Internet access. Each module takes a different topic related to sustainability, such as energy, water, transportation or supply chain. The program also provides history, statistics and solutions using real-life business and community examples. Each module takes less than an hour to complete. A quiz following each module measures participant understanding. The program includes communication materials to promote the modules to employees prior to their participation. Additional materials are available for external communications, special event planning and functional product tie-ins. SEEC also can help companies achieve credits for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEEDŽ) certification from the U.S. Green Buildings Council. Developed by Johnson Controls in conjunction with the National Energy Foundation, SEEC applies the Guidelines for Excellence of the North American Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE). The NAAEE defines six key characteristics of high quality environmental education materials: fairness and accuracy, depth, building skills, focus on action, instructional soundness and usability. SEEC was originally developed as an in-person educational program, providing information and suggestions for financial, environmental and social activities at work. As an expert in both employee training and sustainability, Johnson Controls has taken the lead on sustainability education. The company is regarded as one of the best education sources in the building environments industry since the establishment of the Johnson Controls Institute in 1947. The Institute provides professional education for thousands of people each year at its 12 locations across the country. Johnson Controls has piloted the new web-based version of SEEC with a select group of companies and plans to expand its marketing and distribution throughout the United States and Canada. Building Clarity is the officially licensed sales representative of the SEEC program. About Johnson Controls, Inc.
