Skills and Supports Required for Businesses to Meet Decarbonisation Targets: Discussion

Ms Tracey Donnery:

In the past year we have had a marketing campaign, Think Climate, Think Talent, directing companies to our networks. That is done nationwide through a lot of regional media as well, alongside our comparable campaigns for digital. We are making an effort to ensure that businesses are aware of these supports. From our research we have found that companies do want it but they are just not always sure where to start. We are trying to encourage them to start with some of the programmes with the climate academy. The marketing campaign is making a difference because we are seeing growth year-on-year.
