[Project number: 2020-1-CY01-KA202-065983] stakeholders about the company’s CSR initiatives, green policies applied and respective business processes undertaken (Bradford & Fraser, 2008; Kerr, 2006). Through appropriate training and upskilling, along with an essential amount of work, time, or money, sustainable strategies will reduce the environmental impact of businesses, save money, and help position companies for growth (Brown & Southworth, 2008). Towards this direction, trainers and VET providers can employ simulation-based training which can be proved very effective for the development of the necessary knowledge, skills and competencies of entrepreneurs related to the adoption and application of green practices as well as enhance the cultivation of their attitudes towards the necessity of green transition. The overall objective of the IO2 training package is to equip VET providers and trainers with a training package so as to be able to successfully implement simulation-based training activities addressing people from private entities and entrepreneurs to require knowledge, skills and individual competences so as to better understand the impacts of climate change and how to apply effective measures that mitigate such impacts by reducing their GHG emissions, saving energy, decreasing waste, applying green technology, fostering innovation through new green products and services, training staff to use energy efficiently, raising staff awareness about energy consumption and waste production. Participants in the proposed simulation activities under the facilitation of VET trainers will also be able to negotiate the need of performing eco-friendly practices and actions in their companies, initiate, form, maintain and manage green organizational policies, which ensure sustainability through building an improved corporate green image and a stronger competitive advantage. 2. Scope of the Handbook This handbook constitutes a tutor manual enclosing content of the four (4) different climate change scenarios selected in the GoGreen project. It introduces all necessary documents and material for the successful implementation of the simulation training. For each simulation scenario it presents: - The description of the Scenario, including: o Content (learning outcomes, duration, number of participants) o Script (case, contextual details, roles) o Case flow o Lesson plan - The Annexes, with materials and templates to be distributed to the trainees, including: o Trainees’ handout o Warm up activity o Role cards o Question sheets for roles o Individual performance evaluation Sheet o Extended information sheet o Evaluation of the Simulation Training (common for all scenarios)
