Empowering Product Users & Producers with Circular Economy Skills
At iCirc Academy, we recognize that transitioning to a circular economy requires more than just awareness; it requires practical skills, industry-specific knowledge, and actionable strategies.
That’s why our training programs are customized to specific industries, operational environments, and business models, ensuring that participants not only understand circular economy principles but can immediately apply them in their respective fields. Whether you are a Product User (consumer, retailer, service provider) or a Product Producer (manufacturer, supplier, business owner), our academy equips you with the skills and knowledge to reduce waste, maximize resource efficiency, and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Who is a Product User and a Product Producer?
