Training & Workshops

For digital and sustainability professionals who want to understand in order to take better action.

Your teams are building digital products every day. Most of them don't know the climate cost.

Digital technology is responsible for about 4% of global emissions, and they keep climbing. Every product your team designs, builds and runs adds to it. But it never shows up anywhere. Your cloud bill lists cost, not carbon. The footprint grows quietly while everyone's looking elsewhere.

So the goals get set at the top and stall there. The people who could actually do something about it, your designers, developers, and product managers, were never given the knowledge or the means. A one-off talk or a shared article won't change how a team works. A proper program will.

What your teams will gain

After training with Decarbonade, your teams will be able to:

  • Estimate and communicate the climate impact of the digital products and services they're responsible for
  • Apply concrete techniques to reduce emissions at the design, development, and infrastructure level, without compromising performance or user experience
  • Integrate sustainability into existing workflows, as a design constraint that makes products better rather than an extra layer
  • Make the business case internally, connecting digital sustainability to cost, performance, risk, and regulatory readiness
  • Lead this work in their organization and become internal champions rather than informed bystanders

Our services

Digital Decarbonization and AI Sustainability

The foundational program for digital and sustainability professionals. Covers the practical techniques product managers, designers, developers, and engineers can use to build leaner, faster, lower-cost digital products. Grounded in real methods, not abstract principles.

Best for: cross-functional product teams, sustainability leads, digital transformation initiatives

Available as: one-hour presentation / three-hour workshop / six-week training program

Digital Decarbonization and AI Sustainability for executives

Digital sustainability as a strategic lever. Covers how leaner digital products can cut costs, risks, and environmental impact, and explain how to implement this on a large scale as part of a team or organization. Includes real case studies, not just theory.

Best for: C-suite, boards, digital transformation sponsors

Available as: one-hour presentation / three-hour workshop / six-week training program

Sustainable AI for builders

AI is accelerating your organization's digital footprint. This program gives teams the tools to make smarter decisions about AI adoption, optimize for efficiency, and understand the real costs of the tools they're evaluating.

Best for: product, data, and engineering teams building with or evaluating AI tools; leaders assessing AI adoption 

Available as: one-hour presentation / three-hour workshop / six-week training program

Sustainable AI for users

AI is now part of daily work. This program helps employees use AI tools responsibly, making informed choices, reducing unnecessary usage, and understanding the impact of everyday AI use.

Best for: employees using AI tools in their daily tasks (not building AI products)

Available as: one-hour presentation / three-hour workshop / six-week training program

Tailored programs

If your team has a specific context, a sector, a tech stack, a regulatory environment, or an existing program, we can build around, we'll design something that fits. Get in touch and we'll come back with a recommendation.

Best for: organizations that need training integrated with their current initiatives and internal language

How it works

01. Scoping call

We learn about your team's current knowledge level, the products they work on, and what your organization has already committed to. This shapes the content and the format.

02. Program design

We tailor the content and select the right format based on your goals, team size, and available time. Choose between a one-hour presentation, a three-hour workshop and a six-week training program.

03. Delivery

In-person or remote. Workshops and training are hands-on and interactive. Longer programs include practical application between sessions.

04. Takeaways

Every participant leaves with techniques and reference materials they can use on their current projects immediately.

05. Follow-through

Training connects directly to our Measure and Reduce services. Your team learns what to look for. We help them act on it. 

"I wanted to highlight that the “Sustainable AI and Copilot” training session, which my team attended in the spring of 2025, was particularly insightful.

It effectively raised users’ awareness of the environmental impact of our AI activities, particularly in relation to the use of Copilot.

This awareness is essential for integrating more sustainable practices into our daily work. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this enriching training."

This is the right fit if

  • Your organization has sustainability goals that need to translate into product decisions
  • Your digital and sustainability teams are working in silos
  • You want something more structured than a one-off talk, and more actionable than a certification course
  • Emerging regulations (CSRD, EU Green Deal) are making digital footprint reporting increasingly relevant to your business

This may not be the right fit if:
You're not sure yet where your biggest digital emissions come from. In that case, a Digital Environmental Assessment is a better first step. It will tell you exactly where to focus training.

Training naturally complements our other services. After building awareness, organizations typically move to measuring their actual footprint, then to implementing changes.
