Accredited course in planning for climate change

Applications for the Climate Risk Ready NSW Accredited Training course starting on 2 August 2021, are now open.

Climate Risk Ready aims to embed consideration of climate change risk into NSW government decision making and increase NSW government preparedness to respond to the increasing impacts of climate change.  Local government participants recently piloted the course and had positive feedback on how the course has supported their work.

The course is sector agnostic and would be particularly relevant for anyone with risk, finance, business continuity, sustainability or infrastructure and assets in their remit. Each cohort is open to Government agencies and local governments only.

Please note the following dates and details:

Applications Close: 19 July 2021

Course orientation: 2 August 2021

Enrolment cut-off date: 9 August 2021

• Participants will be exposed to a network of peers across Government to share learnings and knowledge
