SAN DIEGO, Sept. 23, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In response to overwhelming demand for Eco Consultants worldwide, leading online eco-education provider The Eco Institution is offering a new video scholarship program and is offering 100 Free Tuition Scholarships for video contest winners who submit a short video on why they should become their area's first Eco Consultant.

Expansion in the Eco Consulting sector has been spurred along by strong demand by consumers' desire to curb soaring home energy bills. According to figures reported by The Eco Institution, enrollments have expanded beyond the customary scope of residential professionals like general contractors and home inspectors to include stay-at-home moms, unemployed people and recent college grads. According to an Eco Institution representative, "every day, more and more people are becoming aware of the need for more sustainable lifestyles and strong interest in energy and water savings in their homes and small businesses" which is driving the demand for qualified Eco Consultants in countries worldwide.

Eco Institution's course includes a comprehensive 15 module curriculum that incorporates modules on energy efficiency, lighting, water conservation and purity, toxic free living, waste reduction, recycling and indoor air quality. The Eco Institution course also includes marketing modules which teaches graduates how to market their Eco Consulting practice and also provides a personalized website to attract customers in their community.

Eco consultants typically charge $99 for each green home inspection and $199 for small business green inspections making this a great part-time or full-time opportunity for people looking to supplement their income or for someone looking to launch a great small business in their area.
