Energy Advice Training - short courses
The training is recommended for frontline staff and volunteers, particularly those who work closely with vulnerable people who may be at risk of fuel poverty.
What is Fuel Poverty?
Income maximization and energy efficiency
Energy advice and priority services register
The training is recommended for frontline staff and volunteers, particularly those who work closely with vulnerable people; you are key to ensuring that people at risk of fuel poverty get the information they need.
There are three courses in this series and each is 15 minutes long so that you can watch them when you have a spare moment. They should be watched in order:
What is Fuel Poverty - the factors creating fuel poverty and the effects that it has
Tackling fuel poverty 1 - income maximization and energy efficiency
Tackling fuel poverty 2 - energy saving and priority services register.
You will be sent the information pack after you have completed the first session so that you can use it during the next two sessions, but you should complete all three.
The training is offered free of charge as part of the Energy Outreach Project which is being delivered across the South West by a partnership of the East Dorset & Purbeck Citizens Advice and Dorset Community Action.
