Following a successful launch in Victoria, the ACE Hub is expanding the CIRCO Circular Business Design Workshop across Australia. In 2024, teams from Officeworks, Coles, Reece, Bega, Eagle Lighting, Barwon Water, Godfrey Hirst, and Adorn joined the program. Now, businesses nationwide can access this proven training.

CIRCO helps companies understand their value chain, identify lost value, and explore circular business opportunities that deliver economic, social, and environmental benefits. More than 3,000 companies worldwide have trained in CIRCO since its 2015 launch in the Netherlands, with two-thirds actively implementing circular strategies.

Flexible CIRCO Training Options:

  • 8-week Remote Track (Live, online) – Three modules with webinars and one-on-one coaching.
  • 6-week Hybrid Track (Online + 1 in-person workshop) – Two online modules plus a full-day in-person session.

The first nationwide CIRCO training begins May 6.
