Accreditation signals credibility, accountability and leadership.
Awarded to organisations where a significant proportion of staff have completed accredited Carbon Literacy training and embedded carbon reduction actions into policies and operations.
Recognition for educators who deliver Carbon Literacy learning within academic or training environments and integrate climate awareness into teaching practice.
Accredited professionals qualified to design, deliver and assess Carbon Literacy training programmes aligned to recognised standards.
Training providers authorised to deliver accredited Carbon Literacy programmes, supported by quality assurance processes and structured assessment frameworks.
Empowered teams identify efficiencies and reduce resource waste.
Becoming a Carbon Literate Organisation goes beyond a single training session.
The process starts with approved Carbon Literacy courses covering climate change, practical actions, and sector responsibilities. Organisations then develop internal trainers to maintain consistent knowledge sharing. Training is embedded in business practices, influencing operations, policies, and supply chains.
Once evidence of application is gathered, organisations can apply for recognition, showing staff trained, systems in place, and measurable climate actions. We support every stage, from training and trainer development to rollout and evidence compilation.
Organisations with accredited Carbon Literacy Trainers strengthen their sector position. Accreditation shows climate knowledge is embedded as a professional capability that can be delivered, measured, and repeated at scale.
It signals investment in recognised expertise, with staff trained to deliver Carbon Literacy to an approved standard, building credibility with clients, partners, and stakeholders.
Accredited trainers also enable training for suppliers, partners, and wider networks, raising standards across the value chain and positioning the organisation as a credible voice on climate education.
For many, developing accredited trainers is a key step in turning climate policy into practical, demonstrable action.
