As the creator and overall coordinator of the
programme, ArTech is
the initial contact for enquiries about participating in, or supporting
the programme, about whether it is operating in a particular country,
whether any partnerships have been established with local organizations,
and about the availability of material in the national language.
ISO is encouraging the national standards institutes
that make up its membership to become programme facilitators and
national partners of ArTech.
In the public sector, ISO members could consider
contacting and establishing partnerships around the programme with
ministries and other administrations - central, regional and
local - responsible for areas such as education, youth, the
environment, trade, consumers, national heritage and culture.
In the private sector, potential partners and
sponsors could include industry and business associations, individual
businesses and consumer organizations.
Once the programme material is available in
the national language, a typical implementation in a school, or
other organization, would take place as follows.
An Eco-Kids' Instructor visits the establishment
and provides the following explanations of the programme:
| 1 |
|
The aims. |
| 2 |
|
The contents. |
| 3 |
|
How to implement the programme. |
| 4 |
|
How to instruct teachers whose
classes participate. |
| 5 |
|
How to evaluate the workbooks
after completion by the children. |
| 6 |
|
How to return the evaluation
sheets to the children with their workbooks. |
| 7 |
|
How to lead children to the
next level (Primary Level). |
| 8 |
|
How to obtain the international
certificate of The KidsÂ’ ISO 14000 Programme. |
| 9 |
|
How to manage the instructors
of Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4. |
| 10 |
|
How to organize training courses
for the instructors. |
| 11 |
|
Which programme manuals are
available. |
If the school decides to go ahead, then it
signs a contract with ArTech and designates a representative for
training at an Eco-Kids' Instructor.
ArTech then provides the following:
| 1 |
|
Manual for evaluation of the
Introductory Level workbook. |
| 2 |
|
Manual for printing the evaluation
sheets for the children who complete the workbook. |
| 3 |
|

Level workbook. |

workbook. |
| 5 |
|

Primary Level workbook. |
