Welcome to localenvironmentskills.org
This site will help both employers and employees within the industry to identify their current skills, and provides a catalogue of related learning opportunities from suppliers who have linked their courses to the site.
You can then evaluate these learning opportunities, consider the range of different learning styles and different locations on offer, and decide which will best suit your own particular training requirements.
Who should use this site?
Everyone involved in any function which improves the local environment – such as street cleansing, enforcement and education. This site provides opportunities for everyone from frontline operatives to service directors.
How can this site help?
Localenvironmentskills.org aims to help local authorities and other organisations in the local environmental management sector to drive forward improvements in service delivery.
This website has also been designed to help individuals to target the skills that they require to reach their potential.
Street cleansing and related services are often delivered on tight budgets, so improvements have to be made through working as efficiently as possible. The skills required for improving the local environment vary enormously.
By bringing together all of the relevant training and skills development opportunities, the industry has a mechanism for enabling individuals, teams and organisations to improve performance.
As well as promoting learning opportunities, the site is here to provide key information about how skills development can help to increase the effectiveness of individuals and the public facing services they help deliver.
As a customer-focused website we are keen to hear your views and for you to add to the challenge of providing relevant and up-to-date information. Please give us your suggestions and feedback.
