Joint CPA and Supply Chain Sustainability School Webinar
In June 2024, a joint webinar was conducted for CPA members by the Supply Chain Sustainability School (SCSS) with the CPA being a partner member of the school and an active member of their Plant Group. As an SCSS partner, this allows CPA Members to access the school’s training workshops and other support packages. Through a number of discussions with School staff, it was felt that CPA should facilitate a series of supporting programmes for their members, particularly the smaller members who may have limited resources to effectively engage with this subject, making them aware of what and how they can access Schools many sustainability workshops and support packages.
Therefore, it was agreed to hold to joint webinar to provide a clearer understanding of what the School has to offer, and how it can help CPA members to deliver their business priorities and objectives. There was an opportunity to discuss and gather feedback on what the members would like help with going forward, what they were in knowing more about or being involved in plus ways to engage and collaborate.
Lynne Good and Sam Walker from the School took participants through a number of subjects - which can be viewed using the presentation slide deck which can be downloaded below- and included how the School and their Partners work to support and upskill everyone in the Construction and Built Environment industry, as well as events, networking and collaboration opportunities. It also covered the aims, topics and initiatives undertaken by the School’s Plant Group and an introduction to the PSRO & SCSS Eco-operating Framework plus more.
The School aims to help everyone in the industry become ready and knowledgeable on sustainability and commercial future-fitness relating to it and the CPA and the School will continue to work together to further support CPA members.
