Carbon Literacy Training for SMEs

Description

Join Green Works Consulting, for an informative and interactive Carbon Literacy for SMEs training workshop ? a course certified to a standard accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project and recognised by the United Nations.

Carbon Literacy is: ?An awareness of the carbon dioxide costs and impacts of everyday activities, and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions, on an individual, community and organisational basis.?

This specific course has a strong focus on what role SMEs can play in carbon reduction and provides organisations with an awareness of the climate-related costs and impacts of their activities and the ability and motivation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

This course is designed and facilitated by Green Works - a specialist in Net Zero transitions and embedding sustainability within business. We have worked in partnership with the guidelines provided by the Carbon Literacy Project to create a workshop that contains both essential climate knowledge, but also how to translate this into business actions that will make an impact.

Is this course right for me?

This course is aimed at representatives from SMEs who are looking to increase their awareness of carbon dioxide costs, impacts, and most importantly how to reduce emissions. We are trying to create a community of Net Zero champions within SMEs and so the course would be especially useful for those people who have a responsibility for sustainability and carbon reduction within their role (or would like to take the lead in the future)

The course will enable you to empower your team to take climate action and will also give you the knowledge, skills and confidence to act to reduce your carbon emissions to support your company?s journey to Net Zero.

Participants must complete the full 8 hours of learning (including some self study and follow-up work) to obtain their certification from the Carbon Literacy Project. This course is online and consists of 2 x 3.5 hour sessions:

5th December 2023 - 09.30 until 13.00

7th December 2023 - 09.30 until 13.00

Zoom joining instructions will be sent closer to the date.

We have been running Carbon Literacy Training since 2020 and the course will be facilitated by Green Works cofounder Paul Atkinson - please see below for more information. We keep our group sizes small (maximum 15 ) to allow for optimal interaction and involvement.
