About this Event

Join the Positive Planet team for an informative and interactive Carbon Literacy Certified training course, a qualification recognised by the United Nations. Carbon Literacy training 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.

Is this course right for me?

This course is aimed at SMEs, their employees and anyone looking to increase their awareness of carbon dioxide costs, impacts, and, most importantly, how to reduce emissions. The course would be especially useful for those people who have a responsibility for sustainability and carbon reduction within their role.

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

Where?

This in-person training event will be held at 60 Fountain Street, Manchester City Centre, with further details being shared upon purchasing your ticket. There will be opportunities to network about your Net Zero plans with like-minded businesses

The venue is also fully accessible.
