These groups meet around once a month to share ideas on actions to reduce carbon emissions in specific areas and help shape Ad Net Zero’s plans by participating in the working groups on the key actions as these are established.
This training, built using the IPA’s highly successful online learning platform, is a foundation-level course designed for all advertising industry professionals, from brand teams to sales teams in media owners, right through the supply chain of advertising and marketing services agencies. The course is around 6 hours long, comprising 5-6 modules covering the basics of sustainability, the Ad Net Zero action plan and the role of all advertising professionals within it, the development and challenge of a brief for a sustainable advertising campaign and the rules around greenwashing. The course will draw on elements from Ad Net Zero, AdGreen, the ASA and the Purpose Disruptors #ChangeTheBrief, providing opportunities to extend learning further through additional deep-dive courses. There are plans for a US and French version in the future
We plan to introduce something similar in the US in 2023
