Training & Awareness

The behaviour of staff and other users (students, patients, customers etc) and their awareness of energy play a key part in reducing energy consumption. It is estimated that up to 20% of total energy can be saved by adopting and maintaining best practice.

Undertaking an appropriate range of specific training and broader awareness raising will contribute substantially to any plan to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact in general.

The Green Consultancy provides a wide range of training services - technical and/or inspirational - tailored to suit the needs of each client and options include: 

• Energy awareness training for non-technical staff – and students
• Training Energy Champions
• Technical training to suit the needs of individual departments or sites.
• Train-the-trainer for very large or multisite organisations – for example for regional managers or factory supervisors
• Training aimed at senior managers
• PowerPoint presentations to form part of the induction process for organisations with a large staff turnover
• Input into web-based energy awareness tools – for example for universities
• Support for energy awareness campaigns

If this of interest, one of our trainers will discuss it with you, identifying the services you need, and the logistics of group size etc, so that we can prepare a costed proposal.
