You can do all this with our Carbon Literacy Masterclass for Professional Services, accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project. The 8-hour training incorporates a Climate Fresk workshop and is available in person or online.
Our next online class is on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th February, 9am-1pm GMT (participants must attend both sessions).
Our Carbon Literacy Masterclass is tailored for professional services, for roles or business in:
The Carbon Literacy Project defines Carbon Literacy as ‘an awareness of the carbon costs and impacts of everyday activities and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions, on an individual, community and organisational basis.’
The training equips people and organisations with an understanding of carbon and climate change, and how they can make a positive difference. Becoming Carbon Literate involves making two pledges, one individual, one organisational, which lead to predicted carbon savings of 5-15% per Carbon Literate individual. The training provides an understanding of climate change and it empowers people to take action.
Climate Fresk is an interactive workshop designed to educate participants on climate science, looking at the cause and effect of human actions on the environment and society. It is based on data from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports, making the information more digestible through a card game which encourages collaborative learning.
Grain Sustainability’s Carbon Literacy course is one of the first to incorporate Climate Fresk, as the first 3 hours of the total 8 hours of training. We have found the Climate Fresk to be a powerful tool that genuinely empowers action and helps make the mandatory scientific content within Carbon Literacy more accessible.
The course provides a full day of learning (8 hours), split into two half-day sessions. The content is delivered in various ways to engage different types of learning.
Incorporated into the training is:
Once an individual has completed the training requirements, they receive a personalised certificate with a unique reference code confirming them as Carbon Literate.
Conducting Carbon Literacy training within your organisation brings a host of benefits:

Our next online class is on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th February, 9am-1pm GMT (participants must attend both sessions).
