We’ve created a course ideal for sustainability leads and other staff members looking to boost their skills and knowledge in climate change, carbon emissions and more.

Registert for free online training for sustainability leads to become carbon literate, available to all UK schools and multi-academy trusts when you register with Let’s Go Zero and are not speaking to a Climate Action Advisor.

The free online course, accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project. As well as becoming carbon literate, attendees will come away from the training with a climate action plan for their school.

Each interactive session is run online on Microsoft Teams for two hours, making up a total of eight hours across the four days. You must commit to attending each of the four sessions.

 

What is Carbon Literacy?

Being carbon literate is when someone understands the true cost of carbon dioxide – and how our everyday activities can impact this. 

Someone who is carbon literate also has both the skills and motivation to reduce carbon emissions, whether that’s on an individual, community or organisational basis.

 

How will I benefit from the training?

Your accredited training will cover vital climate-related topics, which will give you:

  • the knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm to guide your school in its climate journey
  • ideas for ways you can adjust your school’s climate action plan 
  • on-going support from one of our expert Climate Action Advisors
  • the opportunity to become certified by the internationally recognised Carbon Literacy Project.

What will I learn during my Let's Go Zero training?

Your training will cover climate science basics on a local and global level, the current and predicted climate impact (with a focus on schools), climate justice and more – plus those all-important practical steps you can take to help your school reduce its climate impact! 

You’ll also explore strategies for influencing others to take action on climate change, and partially complete your climate action plan with support from one of our Climate Action Advisors.

 

Who can register for training?

The course is mainly designed for sustainability leads at UK schools and multi-academy trusts – but other members of your school’s team are also welcome to sign up!

Places on the course are limited and we’re expecting high demand, so please double-check you can attend all of the training sessions. 

We can only offer Let’s Go Zero training to UK schools, colleges and nurseries that have already joined the campaign and are not already receiving Climate Action Advisor support. It just takes a minute to sign up, so join us now!
