360 Consulting by Greengage has launched a series of sustainability training courses designed to help professionals speak more confidently about sustainability as well as providing a grounding to help them become sustainability leaders within their organisations.
The courses cover topics such as:
- Environmental overview – a foundation in sustainability knowledge
- Sustainability & Business Travel – looking at the environmental impact of business travel and how to reduce it
- Sustainability for Events – guidance on running more sustainable events
The courses are led by 360 Consulting director, Sam Cande, and are pre-recorded so participants can complete them at their own pace.
The approach is practical rather than academic, helping learners understand key concepts like carbon footprints and net zero without unnecessary jargon. Learning is reinforced with the use of interactive quizzes.
There is also a library of useful practical downloadable resources such as a guide on writing a sustainable business travel policy, understanding environmental phraseology and how to work from home sustainably.
Costing £50 per course, per person, the courses typically take an hour to complete. Participants receive a Greengage certificate on completion of each course.
Additional courses will be added regularly to keep pace with industry developments.
Sam Cande, director of 360 Consulting, said: “These courses are designed for people who may feel unsure or underprepared when sustainability topics come up in meetings, client discussions, or internal conversations about carbon reduction and net zero goals.”
Cande added: “With these courses we’re giving people the tools and confidence to do just that — in a way that fits around their schedule.”
