The Liberty & Main site should become an educational tool where students in any curriculum can learn about green building technologies. Professors should mentor individual student led projects that will help to further develop the site and develop the expertise and understanding of the student. A regular course in the curriculum that takes advantage of the efforts of the city in this area should also be implemented. Several different departments would find these new facilities ideal for getting their message across to students, fields as diverse as: environmental sciences, resource management, horticulture, environmental engineering, and several diverse studio courses. An extraordinary model for the development of college level curriculum would be the Humbold State Universities Campus Center for Appropriate Technology (CCAT). They employ an applicable program of student involvement and innovation that could help to sustain any of the following additional means of education.

If we are trying to create an educational tool for the public the university is an ideal partner in this venture, perhaps the communiversity branch of UC could spread it's curriculum to make use of the facilities being developed at Liberty & Main. This would be a great way for the university to introduce itself in a real way to a whole new audience. Communiversity programs on sustainable technologies, and also on practical ways that people can live sustainably in their current homes would be very helpful in teaching energy and water saving techniques. With a facility like this being developed it could become much easier to demonstrate these techniques. Possible classes and seminars could be held covering topics such as low-flow fixture implementation, solar cooking, urban gardening, thermal curtain making, photovoltaic installation, sustainable building materials, composting and recycling education.

Seminars for local and visiting professionals should also be developed. All of the different trades involved with sustainable building and living would require further education and specialized training. If Cincinnati were to become a leader in sustainable technologies, it would be an economic boon for the university and the city attracting professionals from around the area who would pay for seminars and stimulate downtown service and tourist industries such as hotels and restaurants. Seminars could be held for architects, engineers, city and community planners, environmental scientists, and resource management professionals.

Industry expos could also be a great educational tool and moneymaker for the CCGT. If the city made a concerted effort to promote green building and sustainable technologies, it would spur a wave of economic redevelopment in the tri-state area. Sustainable building materials companies and contractors would have a huge opportunity for growth and this new facility could act as a site for industry tech expos for local Cincinnati industry: green roof and landscape manufacturers and distributors, domestic water management companies, sewage treatment companies, geothermal and radiant heating companies, alternative home energy production industries, and all of the sustainable building materials companies. Any of these industries would benefit greatly from the showcasing of their products and services.

The Liberty & Main site would also make for a great place for the concentration of volunteer work. The community engagement facilities that are proposed for the site could act as a meeting place for people from throughout the area who are interested in promoting sustainable construction practices. Community volunteers and students and faculty from the university could even aid in some of the work of construction. Volunteers who are interested in a broader community involvement would find this facility very helpful as well; the site is located in the heart of Over-the-Rhine, which has played host to a vast amount of volunteer programs.
