Workshops & Training
Ripple Effect Training and Workshops are designed to equip your school’s members and teams with the knowledge, strategies, and tools needed to build robust foundations for your school’s sustainability journey. Each session is a blend of learning and practical application, ensuring that the insights gained are directly relevant and actionable in your school.
Workshops can be tailored to your school’s specific needs, whether it's for targeted groups like your School Board & Decision-Makers or Student Leaders, or for mixed groups such as your school’s Sustainability Team or mixed stakeholder groups. We work closely with you to understand your school’s specific needs and where you are in your journey, to help you choose a focus area or workshop series that will help you make meaningful progress toward your sustainability goals.
