9 How does the Program Work? There are 2 Parts to the Program Knowledge Testing Online Exam Offline Exam On-Ground Activity Green -a- Bag (Compulsory) Group Activity (Optional)

10 Program Details Knowledge Testing: Each Group of Participants can either choose for an Online or Offline Exam. The knowledge shared in the book & cd will be assessed in the form of 10 questions. These could be Multiple choice and/or essay type questions. Note: Participants who do not attempt the exam by the deadline will be considered disqualified and will receive a participation certificate. On Ground Activity: Every Participant needs to perform an activity within his/her influence circle. i. Green -a- Bag (Compulsory) : Green a bag is an awareness campaign part of Green (R)evolution Global Program where each participant has to explain the impacts of Climate Change and easy steps that an individual can take within his/her own capacity to fight climate change. One such action will be to use the cloth bag provided to them instead of using regular plastic bags. Each Participant has to promote a minimum of 10 bags worth Rs. 20/- each, to gain credits in this segment. For more information visit intcce.org/green ii. Group Activity (Optional): Each Group can choose to perform any of the activities listed on our website. Credits will be given to the participant and the group once the chosen activity is completed.

11 Benefits to Participants International Certification: The Green (R)evolution Global Certificate is Recognized by various International Organizations and Government agencies allowing participants to showcase their contributions towards Actions Against Climate Change. Access to Best in Class Content: The Material provided to Participants contains the best in class content procured from UNFCCC, The World Bank Institute, NASA & IPCC. Exposure to Social Activity: Participants are introduced to social actions through the On Ground Activities. It provides a platform to Educate and Influence the society to Act more willingly against Climate Change.

12 Benefits to Participants contd. Profile Credibility: The Certification is not only a token of appreciation but proof of involvement. Participants can use these credits to build their profile. Such profiles always have a preference over those who do not contribute to such causes. Greener Jobs: As the world population swells and climate change puts increasing pressure on the environment, the need for knowledgeable professionals to mitigate damage to the air, land and sea increases as well. Careers in the environmental sector are expanding and market demand for environmental professionals is expected to exceed that of many other professions. The certification will help our participants to aspire for these jobs. Learning to live an Environmental Friendly Life: The Ultimate reason to participate in the program is to learn to take actions against climate change within the participant s own capacity. Various techniques and activities make the participant learn the best way of living an environment friendly life.
