This accredited Climate Emergency Training provides an opportunity for staff working in Scotland’s Tourism sector to understand the climate emergency and respond to the risks, opportunities and responsibilities ahead. Participants will gain knowledge of the carbon costs and impacts of everyday activities and identify actions to tackle them on their way to becoming certified as Carbon Literate.

Having a Carbon Literate workforce is vital to help the tourism sector to meet new regulations and customer expectations that a net-zero Scotland will bring. Businesses with a Carbon Literate workforce will find they can develop more efficient and cost-effective operations. And as an employee you’ll find the training empowers you to take effective action on climate change and develop your skills and experience.
