Hi Deborah

Although there will be a cost of the development and delivery of in person
training this is not costed separately for officer time or materials,
therefore we are unable to provide a cost.

I hope this helps clarify.

Subject: Council spending on climate change training for staff and
officers

You don't often get email from [8][email address]. [9]Learn
why this is important

Re: [10][FOI #1084457 email]

"All climate change training is developed and delivered internally so
there is no external cost."

Many thanks for you response - To clarify, I did not ask to be informed of
external cost of this training. I asked what is the cost to DCC of
delivery of the climate change training programme for employees and
councillors, including mandatory climate change training for new members
of staff. Presumably, the cost of all activities undertaken by the Council
can and should be measured in financial terms, whether sourced in-house or
externally.

I would therefore like an answer to my original request please.

Many thanks,

Deborah Short
