Develop a CPD programme

For many staff in education settings, sustainability and climate action are new topics. It’s likely that some training will be needed to help them create goals to mitigate the impacts of climate change and promote sustainable practices.

Developing a CPD (Continuing Professional Development) programme will provide a structured framework to enhance the awareness, knowledge and skills of all staff involved in the delivery of sustainability practices and principles. This should be made up of training opportunities that are specific and targeted teaching, aimed at imparting particular skills or knowledge necessary for specific jobs or tasks, and supplemented by awareness raising opportunities which develop a better understanding of a particular topic and its impact.

Benefits include promoting ongoing learning, improving staff competency, fostering a culture of sustainability, and ensuring that your setting remains at the forefront of climate education and environmentally responsible practices.
