A brief description of the sustainability trainings and professional development opportunities available to staff :

Starting in the fall of 2011, the Office of Sustainability, in partnership with the Office of Leadership and Professional Development, began offering staff professional development opportunities on sustainability. The session, entitled Creating a More Sustainable Workplace, educates participants about Elon’s sustainability program and how they can be a Sustainability Leader in their office. Participants are encouraged to take the information gained back to their departments/offices along with a Sustainable Workplace Assessment Tool. The Tool helps departments/offices identify their accomplishments and areas for improvement. This introductory session continues to be offered once a semester. Those who attend the session become part of the Sustainability Leaders group on campus. This group meets once a semester to share ideas and resources and to learn about new campus sustainability initiatives. The group also has a listserv and Moodle site for communication between in-person meetings.
