Parker Enterprise: Leading the Way in Carbon Reduction
Over 10 Years of Training Excellence
Parker Enterprise has been a leader in the training sector for over a decade, delivering high-quality learning experiences with hundreds of positive reviews from satisfied learners. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we have implemented a Carbon Reduction Plan to minimise our environmental impact and align with the UK’s Net Zero Strategy.
Understanding Our Carbon Footprint
Our carbon emissions primarily come from:
- Travel & transportation – Staff commuting, trainer travel, and site visits.
- Energy consumption – Office heating, lighting, and IT equipment.
- Material usage – Paper-based training resources and office supplies.
- Digital infrastructure – Cloud-based services and data centres.
By assessing these areas, we have established a 2023 baseline and set clear reduction goals.

We are dedicated to reducing our carbon footprint by 30% by 2030 and achieving Net Zero by 2050. To reach these goals, we have implemented the following strategies:
Sustainable Travel & Transport
- Increasing virtual training sessions to reduce travel emissions.
- Encouraging public transport & car sharing for staff and trainers.
- Exploring electric & hybrid vehicles for company use.
- Offsetting unavoidable travel with reforestation projects.
Energy Efficiency & Office Sustainability
- Switching to renewable energy providers.
- Investing in energy-efficient IT hardware and LED lighting.
- Reducing heating and cooling waste with smart thermostats.
Eco-Friendly Procurement & Digital Transformation
