The new e-learning platform has been updated to include demonstration videos covering both flammables and carbon dioxide principles.
To support this e-learning programme, the REAL Alternatives 4 LIFE team is organising train the trainer events from March to June 2019 across Europe. With a focus on flammables and carbon dioxide, these events will provide trainers with a practical introduction to the REAL Alternatives 4 LIFE programme which includes assessments and certification, as well as information about how to set up and market REAL Alternatives training events.
This will lead to a network of over 100 licensed training providers in alternative refrigerants throughout Europe.
