Teaching Sustainability for Further Education

For tutors and educators in Further Education

18th - 20th July

The government's carbon reduction programme is already starting to bring about major changes in the technologies and practices used in the 21st century. The pace of change is rapid and will increase as the urgency for environmental issues becomes more prevalent in all aspects of working life. This course uses activities, talks and discussions to equip tutors at BTech and other FE levels to incorporate sustainability into their teaching. The aim is for participants to feel confident to embed sustainability into their existing practice. The course draws on CAT's experience of working with this age range, and its wealth of knowledge of sustainable building design, engineering, control and energy technologies.

This course will also equip tutors delivering the Welsh Bacc to deliver the Wales Europe and the World aspect of their curriculum, as well as ESDGC.
