Vocational schools and professional organisations receive support in integrating and putting into action the topics of sustainability and climate. 

myclimate «Skills for Future» is an action-based educational and support programme that enables apprentices to learn and implement climate protection skills at vocational schools or in external courses. This enables them to make a contribution to sustainability and climate protection in a professional context – beyond political ideologies and emotional debates, but always practical and skills-orientated.

The programme can be brought to schools or your organisation in various forms. It consists of free workshops on the topic of climate protection. The newly acquired knowledge can be put into practice and the relevant skills developed in a general or in-depth project. The best and most exciting ones receive national exposure and recognition through our platform.

In addition, the myclimate «Skills for Future» team supports organisations in the world of work, vocational schools, lecturers and teachers in integrating climate protection into their institutions and the corresponding educational programmes at a methodological, conceptual and strategic level.

The myclimate educational programme gives apprentices an important experience for their future careers, which is namely that they can shape and implement things themselves.
