Upskilling and training

Upskilling your workforce is essential to adapt to climate change and future-proof your business. More and more opportunities are becoming available to help businesses, including:

Becoming Carbon Literate

Carbon Literacy is an awareness of the carbon costs and impacts of everyday activities, and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions on an individual, community or organisational basis. As a council, we are a Carbon Literate Organisation and have committed to training our staff. Businesses can also train up their staff to achieve the same accreditation.

This training is useful because it:

  • Increases your knowledge on climate change, and more importantly what you can do about it.
  • Leads to resource savings as part of pledges to reduce emissions.
  • Improves your business reputation as it demonstrates your commitment to sustainability to potential employers, partners and customers.
  • Builds valuable networking connections with other businesses during the training.
  • Empowers you to talk about climate change positively and champion sustainability.
