About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) This 2 half-day Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT) course will guide participants on the technoeconomic aspects of capture, utilization and geological storage of carbon dioxide. The VILT course will address the methods and techniques used in the technoeconomic assessment of Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage (CCUS) projects. It will explore in detail the factors that affect the cost-effectiveness of current and emerging technologies for CO2 capture, transport and geological storage, including monitoring and verification. Given that the successful deployment of CCUS may require economic incentives, technical and economic drivers such as technological innovation, optimization, source sink matching and emerging opportunities will also be discussed. In addition, using several worked examples and case studies, this VILT course will explain the principles behind the analysis of the costs and opportunities of a CCS / CCUS project from source to sink and examines the possibilities of using carbon dioxide from an economic perspective. Training Objectives Upon completion of this VILT course, participants will be able to: Describe the economic considerations for CCS / CCUS projects Measure and calculate the cost-effectiveness of CCS / CCUS Identify the economic drivers for CCS / CCUS Understand the value of source to sink matching Outline the economic and environmental opportunities as well as challenges with using carbon dioxide injection in a range of applications Recognize niche opportunities for CO2 storage (coal seams, basalts, salt and others)   Target Audience This VILT course is ideally suited for a technical audience such as geoscientists, petroleum and chemical engineers as well as professionals such as economists, regulators, legal staff and managers wishing to learn more about the details of economic aspects and the basis for techno-economic analysis of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage projects. The VILT course is presented in an interactive workshop format, allowing for discussions. Participants should have: Basic background knowledge of CCUS technologies Experience with oil and gas, coal or other energy projects Basic understanding of the energy industry Course Level Basic or Foundation Training Methods The VILT course will be delivered online in 2 half-day sessions comprising 4 hours per day, with 2 breaks of 15 minutes per day.

How can we interrupt the isolation of disabled, challenging and other ‘different’ children and adults? This is our lead workshop/training day and is both a values primer and a practical guide to successful strategies for developing inclusive practice in educational and non educational settings for children and young people of all ages. This is practical plus being a ‘hearts and minds’ day. What does inclusion mean? Can we imagine what an inclusive school look like? What do we have to do? The day gives those present opportunities to reflect on their attitudes and practice in relation to the inclusion of children and adults who are different or challenging. The Keys can be presented as a powerful interactive Keynote for large conferences. A great way to launch a conference as the first key is ‘welcome’. Learning Objectives Increased confidence regarding developing inclusive practice in mainstream schools and other settings Access to a wider range of practical strategies to impact on behaviour problems Deeper understanding of core values surrounding inclusion of disabled and challenging children and adults Opportunity to reflect on professional attitudes and behaviour towards parents and pupils New skills and processes to make inclusion successful Course Content The course answers the questions : Why inclusion? What is inclusion? How do we go about including high profile children or young people? What does inclusion have to do with me? Best delivered over the course of a full day, ‘Keys to Inclusion’ introduces participants to 6 guiding Ideas that underpin inclusive practice. The importance of WELCOME Inclusion is about Adults’ learning Taking the Long View Giftedness as a new paradigm for understanding disability and difference The Intentional Building of Relationships – ‘Circle of Friends’ work as an example of this Not doing it alone – the importance of Teams in developing inclusive practice.
