Virgin Trains on track for greater environmental awareness
Article Type: Notes and news From: Industrial and Commercial Training, Volume 46, Issue 2
Virgin Trains is introducing an e-learning program to improve the environmental awareness of its 3,000-plus employees.
The course will be delivered via Luminosity Reach, training-company CM Groups cloud-based learning-management system.
“There is an impressive level of awareness and enthusiasm among our employees on green issues. In each of our offices, stations and depots we are actively engaging with front-line teams to maintain this passion, said Tony Collins, Virgin Trains chief executive.
“Champions will be invited to share collective knowledge and experiences and will have the support and resources from the safety and environment team to establish new schemes.
“This program, driven by empowered individuals, mirrors our wider strategy to enable action by those who can have the greatest impact.
As an existing user of Luminosity, Virgin Trains will be able to update the e-learning itself in the future to reflect environmental-policy developments or legislation changes.
“The passion for the environment shown by Virgin Trains has been infectious, said David Ashby, learning-solutions consultant at CM Group. “The company is very proud of the strides it has taken in reducing its environmental impact. The e-learning program will form a big part of enhancing its environmental performance even further.
