Action 1 of the National Climate Education Action Plan was to provide encouragement and support for staff to have access to continuing professional development (CPD) to help them deliver high quality climate education. As part of our work during the last year, the NCEAP group has been bringing together a list of available CPD under the leadership of Charlotte Bonner (EAUC). This first initial list of CPD opportunities is published here and we hope is useful to those working in the education sector. Please feel free to share the page and the list with colleagues and collaborators.

Over the next six months, we will be adding functionality to this part of the site so it is easier to search and compare available CPD opportunities. We are also working on plans to keep the list up-to-date; if you are a CPD provider and have something to add to the list, please get in touch at climateeducation@reading.ac.uk

No endorsement of a particular provider or CPD content is implied by publication on the list.
