Greenwashing & Sustainability Misinformation

A programme that equips VET teachers to help learners judge environmental claims critically. It focuses on spotting misleading marketing, weak evidence, and unclear labels—using industry-relevant examples and practical evaluation routines.

VET teachers and trainers who want to strengthen learners’ critical judgement in a world of sustainability claims and “eco” messaging.

By the end of the course, participants will learn:

• Common greenwashing techniques and how they appear in products and services
• How to teach learners to evaluate claims, labels, and data in a structured way
• How to design scenario tasks and mini-cases based on real-life purchasing/work decisions
• How to build simple checklists and routines learners can use independently
• How to facilitate discussions without polarisation, focusing on evidence and trade-offs

It builds essential workplace and consumer competence: learners become better at assessing information, making responsible choices, and communicating sustainability honestly.
