Sustainable Education: Climate Change and Eco-Schools

Name: Sustainable Education: Climate Change and Eco-Schools
Price: 400 EUR

Why this is Erasmus+ eligible

Structured, multi-day programme (5 days) with a pre-defined schedule and learning outcomes — not a passive lecture format.

Built around interaction: participants engage directly with the trainer and with peers from other countries throughout the course.

Transnational by design — open to participants travelling from outside the host country, a core requirement of Erasmus+ mobility funding.

Overview

This course focuses on enhancing educators’ capacity in sustainability and environmental education, with an emphasis on climate change and Eco-Schools projects. Participants gain the knowledge and skills to integrate sustainability principles into classroom settings through a range of activities and projects, aligned with the European Union’s priorities on sustainability and environmental education.

Methodology

Hands-On, Activity-Based Learning

Theoretical sessions are kept to a maximum of one hour per day — most of the time is spent on interactive activities and group work.

School-Ready Projects

Participants develop sustainability and Eco-Schools projects they can implement directly in their own school.

Evidence-Informed Practice

Practical training draws on EU sustainable-education policy and citations from scientific literature throughout the course.

What you'll take home

Develop education projects focused on climate change and sustainability.

Implement the Eco-Schools programme in your own classroom.

Integrate EU sustainability and climate policy into your teaching.

Design and apply environmentally-conscious education programmes for your students.

Certificate & assessment

This is a Certificate of Attendance, not an exam-based qualification — recognition comes from completing the structured programme, not from passing a test. The real, lasting value is in the competencies listed above under What you'll take home.

Erasmus Mobility Academy

Certificate of Attendance

Sustainable Education: Climate Change and Eco-Schools · 5 days · 25 hrs

+ Europass Mobility document

Type your name above — clearly marked "SAMPLE" in the PDF, not an official document.

The real certificate is signed by your trainer and EMA's authorised signatory. Your own signature isn't on this document — it's captured separately, on the Europass Mobility document.

Need to verify a real certificate? Check it online using the serial number and participant's full name, or contact us directly — [email protected], OID E10304561.

Attendance

Tracked using a sign-in sheet with one signature per participant per day (paper or digital). This record is used to issue your Certificate of Attendance and Europass Mobility document. View sign-in sheet (PDF)

Output

Every participant leaves with a completed Dissemination & School Impact Plan — a step-by-step template for applying the course back at your school (see below).

Feedback

An end-of-course evaluation form is sent to every participant after the course ends — a chance to reflect on what you've learned and how you'll apply it, and it helps us keep improving the course for future participants.

Your paperwork

Keep your travel tickets, boarding passes and (if you used green travel) any related receipts — your school or National Agency may ask for these for their own Erasmus+ reporting.

School impact

After completing this Sustainability & Environment course, the participating staff member can transfer outcomes directly to their school: a short briefing for colleagues sharing the key takeaways, applying relevant tools or strategies from the programme in their own role, and inclusion of the course materials in the school's professional development resources — turning one person's mobility into a wider institutional gain that supports the school's European Development Plan. Use the Dissemination & School Impact Plan below to fill in your own — it saves as you go and can generate a one-page summary for your coordinator too.
