This SCQF level 4 course is aimed at secondary school pupils looking to develop their knowledge of climate change and understand what positive decisions they can take to address the causes of climate change.
The course includes a notional 20 hours of learning, activities, and assessment. Successful candidates will achieve 2 credits at SCQF level 4.
