Description
Essex County Council wishes to procure a suite of training programmes for its members and officers. The purpose of the training is to upskill key members and officers within the Council in carbon literacy.
The training provider may wish to use the Carbon Literacy Project toolkits for local authorities and adapt them and make them specific to Essex prior to any delivery. There are three toolkits available, one for Council officers, one for leaders and managers and one for elected members.
Training could be developed using these adapted materials or the training provider could use already existing courses that are adapted to be bespoke to Essex.
