Focus on carbon literacy

16 May 2022

School of Management academics Dr Ralitza Nikolaeva and Dr Aliya Tskhay have developed a training course on carbon literacy for fellow University of St Andrews staff.

The morning session of the full-day course will focus on identifying the problem, and the afternoon will consider solutions.

Participants will need no prior knowledge of the subject. Learning objectives for the course are to allow staff to:

  • appreciate the science behind climate change
  • know what solutions and tools can address climate change
  • have a basic understanding of how carbon is measured
  • identify actions to take forward in and out of the workforce.

Staff can register for the training via Carbon literacy on PDMS, the professional development activities booking pages.
