About the course

Retrofit, air source heat pumps, solar thermal, battery storage – these are just some of the buzzwords being used as the UK heads towards Net Zero. But what are they? How do they work? How can they reduce carbon emissions? How can you get involved?

In partnership with the Forest of Dean District Council, you will learn about the different types of renewable technologies available and how they work. The different methods of retrofit will also be considered, and how all of these aspects can help reduce carbon emissions. If you are looking for a career change into the green sector, but are not sure where to start, this course is for you.

How is the course delivered and assessed?

This course will be delivered face to face at a local community centre (exact venue to be confirmed), with our experienced staff. There will be practical activities and group learning, as well as plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get the most from your learning.

What can I do next

Our aim is to move learners into either further learning, or employment. We will work with you and other partners to help you with this.

Additional information

This course is free of charge for all learners. Lunch will also be provided, and we can assist with travel costs.
