The Training Curriculum presents an introductory module, “Introduction to Sustainability and Sustainable Management”, as well as six topic-specific modules covering subjects ranging from “Artificial Intelligence and Sustainability” to “Circular Economy”. In this way, it touches upon the issues covered by all 17 UN SDGs, especially in the introductory module, where UN SDGs is covered as a topic on its own.
As the interconnectedness of UN SDGs proves, the complexity of the sustainability problems we experience today exceeds borders between countries and occupations. In many sustainability projects, the engagement of international, multidisciplinary teams is needed. Considering this, TOO4TO Training Curriculum integrates the development of virtual team leadership and sustainable leadership skills into its module structures.
