WRAP Recycling Managers Training Programme
Courses are aimed at recycling and waste managers in local authorities and those from not-for-profit / community organisations or private waste management companies who are directly involved in delivering and managing local authority recycling services.
This is a new blended learning programme with three elements:
- Required pre-course e-learning to ensure delegates have a common understanding of certain key concepts and terminology;
- Face to face study to allow application of knowledge; and
- Post course, work based reports and discussion forums to extend and consolidate learning.
