The Climate Path
A single, unbiased source of credible, accessible climate and environmental education for the healthcare industry.
The Climate Path is available on CPDmatch, a pioneering non-profit platform connecting healthcare professionals, employers, and supplier industries with education focused on the triple planetary crisis: climate change, pollution and loss of biodiversity.
The Climate Path
is the first structured, expert-curated, educational pathway which enables individuals and organisations operating within the healthcare sector to build climate and environmental literacy in a certified, monitored and reportable format.
It enables
Organisations to demonstrate engagement
in sustainability education, improve reputation, support NHS procurement requirements, and evidence staff progression in ESG reporting
Effective communication between all individuals
working in the value chain creating shared partnership values between clinical and procurement teams and the suppliers of products and services.
Individuals to grow their knowledge
and align with their organisation’s sustainability goals and gain credibility for working with healthcare systems shifting toward sustainability and system thinking.
The content
Offers free to access, virtual, on-demand learning, purpose-built to address the full range of challenges associated with the climate and environmental emergency. All materials are regularly reviewed to ensure they remain accurate, relevant, and up to date.
Why it matters
The Climate Path transforms environmental intent into individual and organisational capability through integrating environmental literacy into professional development rather than positioning it as optional awareness training.
How it works
