Climate-KIC launches training programme

The EIT’s Climate-KIC has launched a new professional training programme in France.

The Climactio course provides public and private executives with the knowledge to help support climate change projects, both adaptation and mitigation. The programme also provides coaching alongside the implementation of their projects.

The course was launched in Bordeaux, France, earlier this month. The first course session was held at the launch ceremony and has led to a number of projects submissions to the Knowledge and Innovation Community. Eligible projects will now be able to benefit from the coaching, starting in January 2015 following the selection of submitted projects.

Additional sessions of the Climactio training programme are planned for the new year. The programme will include sessions on various climate change issues, including sustainable cities.
