Course Overview
What is this course
The ProQual Level 3 Award in Energy Management: Behavioural Change and Motivation is a unique qualification that focuses on the “human element” of energy efficiency. While technical upgrades and smart sensors are vital, their effectiveness is often undermined by human habits and workplace culture. This course is designed for professionals who recognize that lasting energy reduction requires more than just better hardware; it requires a workforce that is engaged, informed, and motivated to use energy responsibly every day.
The curriculum delves into the psychological and sociological theories behind why people use energy the way they do and how to influence those patterns. You will explore various communication strategies, learning how to tailor “green” messaging to different stakeholders, from senior management to frontline staff. The course covers the design and implementation of internal awareness campaigns, the use of feedback loops, and the identification of barriers that prevent people from adopting energy-saving behaviors, such as “status quo” bias or a lack of perceived ownership.
Beyond theoretical knowledge, this Level 3 Award provides practical tools for measuring the impact of behavioral interventions. You will learn how to set realistic engagement targets and use data to demonstrate the financial and environmental value of a motivated workforce. By completing this qualification, you become a specialist capable of bridging the gap between technical energy auditing and organizational culture, making you an essential asset for any company aiming to embed sustainability into its core operational values.
