Description of the methodology used to complete the continuing education inventory:

The uploaded file contains all the sustainability-focused and -inclusive modules for continuing education.

These have been identified using analysis all the Continuous Professional Development modules (Ref 1) and using a sustainability language model to classify text among the 17 UN SDGs and identify the sustainability level as Sustainability-Focused, Sustainability-Inclusive, or Non-Sustainable. The tool (patent pending) has an accuracy of over 86% across all SDGs, making it the most accurate tool compared to any open-source model, including ChatGPT. The tool's results are continuously reviewed by a group of sustainability experts, including the TU Dublin Sustainability Office and sustainability champions from various schools.
