NIH Sustainability LMS Training
The NIH Sustainability Training is now available to complete through the LMS Training Portal! The training outlines the nine environmental goals of the NIH as they relate to executive orders and federal mandates. In this training, you will learn about steps we can take, both on an individual and organizational level, to improve the sustainability of NIH operations.
Now that the training is available on LMS, completion can be tracked and participation data can be analyzed. These metrics offer the opportunity to support PMAP sections, including SES Performance Evaluation Critical Element 1: Leading Change. Registration for the training is free. Once registered, the video can be viewed instantly and rewatched an indefinite number of times.
This training serves to promote efforts to improve climate literacy across the HHS workforce, emphasizing education for sustainability. If you haven’t already, we encourage you to take the next 25 minutes to review the training. Thank you for your commitment to the environment!
