Aims
This course draws on WRAP's Waste Prevention Toolkit to provide delegates with the knowledge and understanding to enable them to deliver an effective waste prevention strategy, develop/improve action plans for the delivery of waste prevention activities, encourage the behavioural changes necessary for reductions in household waste arisings. The course includes the monitoring and evaluation of the performance of waste prevention activities.
Target audience
This course is targeted at individuals with responsibility for delivering cost-effective waste prevention activities.
Delegates may, or may not, have previously attended the WRAP Waste Prevention: a strategic approach’.
However, ‘Waste prevention: planning and delivery’ builds on the knowledge and skills acquired from the ‘Waste prevention: a strategic approach’ course. We would therefore recommend that prior to attending this course an Officer from the Local Authority attends ‘Waste prevention: A strategic approach’.
Before attending WRAP’s ‘Waste Prevention: planning and delivery’ course we recommend that delegates attend the Recycling Managers Training Course - Phase 1.
Duration
- 1.5 days residential (Day 1: 11.00 to Day 2: 17.00).
Level
Masters Level (NVQ equivalent 7)
Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course delegates will be able to use the WRAP Waste Prevention Toolkit to:
- achieve agreement, within their local authority, of a practical definition for waste prevention that will guide the current and future waste prevention activities;
- identify the implications of the local, national and international drivers for the delivery of local waste prevention activities;
- understand the need to dissociate waste prevention behaviour from recycling behaviour;
- use behaviour change models such as the (Defra) 4Es Model when planning for waste prevention;
- identify good practice waste prevention activities available and the approaches used for their delivery;
- analyse, select and prioritise waste prevention activities and approaches to drive behaviour change;
- produce/further develop a waste prevention action plan, including communications and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) elements; and
- monitor and evaluate the impacts of individual activities and the overall waste prevention plan.
