New Training-Delivery Framework For Plant-Based Eco-Operations

The Plant Sector Representative Organisation (PSRO) has partnered with the Supply Chain Sustainability School's (SCSS) Plant Group for the development of a new training-delivery framework for courses on plant-based eco-operations to encourage low-carbon based operations.

The framework sets out the parameters for consistent delivery and identifies and provides guidance on areas such as core and optional learning outcomes, delivery content and methodologies, assessment strategies and course durations. As the learning content can vary for a number of occupations, the framework further identifies individual course content and delivery factors for plant operatives, supervisors, plant and site managers, planners, plant procurers, maintenance personnel etc.


The aim is that on completion of a course based on this framework, delegates should have attained a required level of understanding on the principles of reducing machine-based carbon emissions, enabling them to recognise and apply learnt reduction techniques, operational processes and emerging machine technologies with a desired outcome that each delegate takes personal ownership of the need to reduce emissions.
