Advanced Certificate in the Role of the Designated Sustainability Lead

As part of the DfE’s sustainability and climate change strategy, all education settings should have a nominated sustainability lead who has put in place a climate action plan by 2025. These leaders should drive effective whole-setting approaches to the challenges of sustainability and climate change, particularly in the way settings are operated and regulated.

In this course, Hannah Tombling provides you with the knowledge and skills to understand your role as a leader in climate change and sustainability and meet environmental expectations on operations, estates and infrastructure.
