What energy efficiency and sustainability training do we offer?
Our e-learning platform and interactive modules can help your teams improve their understanding of energy efficiency and sustainability at work and home. Choose from either:
The Knowledge Hub e-learning platform. Your employees can access all our expert courses, supporting content and webinars through the platform.
The SCORM files of a particular course or courses. This option is best if you already have a learning management system. Your employees can access both your in-house courses and our sustainability training in the same place.
Curated by our team of energy experts, the course content is continually updated with the latest energy saving and sustainability information. You can also customise modules to suit your organisation’s needs and include your own content.
