NUS’s Green Impact team has created this programme to ensure we are constantly supporting people delivering our programmes. Whether it’s by providing learning and development opportunities, fostering a peer-support network, or sharing good practice, we’re delighted to launch a monthly schedule of events you can access from the comfort of your desk.

Cost: Free – included as part of your Green Impact fee.

Suitable for: Anyone leading on Green Impact in a students’ union, university, college or off-campus organisation

What will we cover?

Webinars are a learning and development opportunity designed to give participants insight into current best practice from across Green Impact and the broader sustainability agenda delivered by current Green Impact participants, NUS’ sustainability team and external guests. They will be informative and include multiple case studies.

This particular webinar will look at NUS' expanding work in the healthcare sector - partnering FE and HE institutions with local hospitals to run Green Impact, delivering national programmes such as a one for GP practices, and linking to the curriculum with medical students. It will also explore the opportunities for aligning the sustainability agenda to the wellbeing agenda.

How does it work?

For the webinars, we will be using Skype for Business online meeting software - to join click here. To fully participate it’s helpful if you have a webcam, microphone and speaker/headphone although it’s possible to participate with just the speaker/headphone. You can familiarise yourself with this software, and troubleshoot any issues you have using it, before attending a webinar by clicking here. Webinars will be recorded so if you can’t make them, you’ll be able to watch them at a later date.

For this webinar, we will also be using teleconference facilities for those who can't access Skype for Business. When registering, you can choose whether to take part via webinar or teleconference. Those who choose teleconference will recieve details of how to take part before the webinar.
