Bring the Green Career Workshop to Your School

Empower Students for a Sustainable Future

Is your school committed to preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow? ecoACTIVE’s Green Career Workshop is an exciting, hands-on course that you can book for your secondary school students. This workshop introduces students to the world of sustainability and green jobs, helping them explore the fast-growing green economy and the crucial role they can play in building a sustainable future.

As a charity dedicated to environmental education we created the Green Career Workshop to provide students with practical insights into how green careers are shaping the future. Through engaging activities and teamwork, students will gain knowledge about sustainability, environmental challenges, and emerging green jobs across industries such as energy, construction, agriculture and more.

What to Expect from the Green Careers Workshop:

Introduction to Green Careers: Students will learn about the shift to a sustainable economy and the rise of green jobs, aligning with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. They will explore various sectors transitioning to greener practices, including food production, waste management, and renewable energy.

Interactive Team Activity: Students will assume the roles of green professionals (such as ecologists, engineers, sustainability consultants, and eco-artists) to collaboratively tackle a real-world environmental issue—the restoration of the polluted Lea River. They’ll develop a creative, comprehensive plan to improve the river's ecological health and present their strategy through a role-play, presentation, or performance.

Real-World Inspiration: ecoACTIVE's dedicated team and guest speakers from various green professions will share their experiences, offering students a glimpse into the many career paths available in the sustainability sector.

Practical Green Skills: The course emphasises lifelong learning and skills development, encouraging students to think critically, work collaboratively, and apply problem-solving and systems thinking to environmental challenges.

This workshop is ideal for secondary schools looking to inspire their students with the possibilities of green careers while equipping them with valuable skills for the future. By participating, students will leave with a deeper understanding of sustainability and the exciting career opportunities in this growing field.
