Net Zero 360 +

Do you want to feel more confident in maths and learn how to get your business to net zero at the same time?

We’ve developed this three part workshop with the Multiply programme to help businesses get to grips with net zero and build employee numeracy skills.

We’ll be unpacking the terminology around net zero as well as working through the numbers and graphs, at a pace that works for everyone. Don’t worry if you’re just starting out on your net zero journey, or have done a few things and are keen to do more. You’ll get a solid grounding in net-zero business, with plenty of time built-in for you to ask questions and get tailored advice.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll understand:

  • What net zero means for business
  • How to measure your carbon footprint
  • The actions you need to take to reduce, the quick wins and engaging staff

The maths covered includes:

  • Reading graphs and charts
  • Percentages
  • Entering numbers into an online carbon calculator tool
  • Working with numbers relating to your carbon footprint, including electricity bills and vehicle mileage records
