Sustainable Development    Moodle    Coaching and Mentoring    Managing Quality Improvement

Sustainable Development

We are able to provide a wide range of training courses around this theme.  Each course is designed specifically to meet the needs of your organisation.  Sample programmes are listed below

Half or 1 Day Workshops on Sustainability

These sessions are ideal for providing staff with an overview of the scientific, social and political imperatives for sustainability.  Delegates will be encouraged to discuss the issues and relate the information to their own lifestyle and to the organisation.  The longer workshop allows more time for the information to be contextualised to the organisation. 

Accredited CPD for Sustainability

iEARN UK delivers and assesses the NCFE Certificate in Sustainable Development at levels 1 and 2.  These qualifications will accredit an understanding of the issues surrounding sustainable development.  They will be  relevant to:-

ESDGC

Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship is a requirement for learners in Wales.  There are clear links to both the 14-19 Learning Core and to the WBQ Core.  iEARN UK has also worked with DCELLS to link ESDGC to the accreditation of Key Skills.

This course will allow managers and deliverers to understand the requirements and linkages and will include resources and activities to support the delivery of ESDGC.
