CPD and short courses

Organisations are increasingly being judged on non-financial performance.  Environment, social and governance factors are of growing importance when organisations are considering choices about products and services and their environmental implications.

Through our CPD provision, we help organisations integrate sustainability into decision making, look at ways to minimise their environmental impact and help them actively work towards a global sustainable future. 

There is a wide range of tools, support and guidance to ensure individuals select the most appropriate modules to help with career development within sustainability. Support is provided via our personal development plan that enables you to identify key areas of development to enhance knowledge and performance in your current role or address career aspiration towards a future role.

Our CPD training draws on sustainability specialists from all backgrounds (engineering, sociology, psychology, natural sciences, business studies etc) who combine their specialist insights with broader knowledge of sustainability.  Classes are enriched with masters’ students, research students and individuals from our business network ensuring dynamic interactions between students from different disciplines, backgrounds and experience.  Additionally, our modules incorporate a host of external professional speakers from industry, non-governmental organisations and government to ensure our teaching is practice based and relevant.

We partner with businesses to help address sustainability challenges by collaborating with companies on research projects - smaller projects are appropriate for our master students via an industrial placement or larger dissertation project.
