Carbon Literacy Training

Sustainable Action Training

Become Carbon Literate. Gain the knowledge, confidence and certification to take meaningful sustainability action

An internationally recognised training experience that builds practical climate knowledge, develops valuable sustainability skills and leads to individual Carbon Literacy certification.

Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time, but understanding what it means and knowing how to respond can feel overwhelming.

Our Carbon Literacy Training provides a practical, engaging and empowering learning experience that helps participants understand the causes and impacts of climate change, explore solutions, and identify meaningful actions they can take in their personal and professional lives.

By successfully completing the training and short post-course assessment, participants can earn internationally recognised Carbon Literacy certification through The Carbon Literacy Project. Carbon Literacy is recognised globally as a leading approach to climate education and action. Over 170,000 individuals and more than 14,000 organisations have already taken part in Carbon Literacy training worldwide.

What is Carbon Literacy?

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.”

Carbon Literacy training is delivered around the world and has been recognised internationally, including being highlighted by the United Nations as one of 100 transformative climate action programmes capable of helping address climate change at scale.

Successful participants join a growing global community of people committed to creating positive climate action in their workplaces, communities and everyday lives.

Gain internationally recognised certification

Participants who complete the training and successfully submit a short assessment will be awarded individual Carbon Literacy certification through The Carbon Literacy Project. [carbonliteracy.com], [carbonliteracy.com]

This certification demonstrates your commitment to understanding climate change and taking meaningful action. It is a valuable professional credential that can be included on resumes, LinkedIn profiles and professional development records.

Learning that keeps you involved

This isn’t a traditional sit-and-listen workshop.

Throughout the day, participants take part in a variety of facilitated activities designed to make learning engaging, practical and memorable, including:

Group discussions
Collaborative exercises
Interactive games
Knowledge quizzes
Real-world case studies
Reflection activities
Action planning exercises

Small group size

To create a more engaging and meaningful learning experience, places are intentionally limited. Our small group format encourages richer conversations, greater participation and stronger connections between participants. It creates a relaxed and supportive environment where people feel comfortable asking questions, sharing perspectives and learning from one another.

Our experienced facilitators guide the discussion throughout the day, helping participants explore ideas, challenge assumptions and build practical knowledge in a collaborative setting.
