EAUC Professional Development Programme

The EAUC provides a comprehensive Professional Development Programme for staff working towards sustainability in universities and colleges.

The EAUC is the sustainability champion for universities and colleges, working in the sector, for the sector. With our long history of working on environmental and corporate responsibility issues, our unique training programme will enable you to gain the knowledge and skills you require.

Our Professional Development Programme is unique as every training event not only includes topical experts but also sector application. Each event includes key input from colleagues across the sector who will share their knowledge and experience to help you go back to your institution and work more effectively.

We offer our Professional Development Programme at affordable rates, with added discounts for EAUC Members. Income is ring fenced for future events and future development of the EAUC Professional Development Programme.

We also run a Sustainability Leaders Programme, a flexible module based programme helping senior management becomes leaders in the sector, including the prestigious Sustainability Leaders Alumni.
