Training for Environmental Issues

Whilst there is much interest in environmental issues, there tends to be less understanding as to how they can be addressed for maximum benefit to your organisation.

Training is an essential requirement for people to appreciate the impact their organisations can have on the environment (for good or bad), and how to formulate effective environmental strategies.

We offer a range of training courses that underpins the environmental services we are offer, including:

• Environmental Awareness
  This is a vital first step for improving your organisation's environmental culture. When delivered on-site, the content and delivery of this course can be heavily customised to suit your specific circumstances.
  
  
• Introduction to Environmental Management Systems
  For maximum impact, an Environmental Management System needs to be practical and also comply with accepted industry standards (ISO 14001). This one-day course helps you to achieve these objectives for your organisation.
  
  
• Internal Environmental Management System Auditing
  An Environmental Management System (EMS) is a formal, structured approach to handling environmental concerns. Like any system, it needs to be monitored for maximum benefit. This course enables your own staff to audit the performance of your policies and processes.
  
  
• Managing Your Carbon
  "Carbon footprints", "offsetting", "management" and others are current hot topics. This one-day course deals with the sources of carbon emissions, their impact and what you can do about them.
  
  
• Waste Management Tools and Techniques
  Production and disposal of waste is another topic of major concern. This course explains how to minimise waste, reduce its impact on the environment and often save costs for your business.
  
  
• Waste Management in Construction
  The Construction industry has its own waste management issues that are dealt with specifically in this course.
  
  
• Emergency Spill Response
  If you store or use substances that could be harmful to the environment, then you must have equipment and emergency procedures in place to effectively handle a spillage. This course explains the issues, techniques and strategies for implementing appropriate arrangements.

Some of these courses are available as part of our public course schedule, though most of them are ideally suited to be run on-site and tailored for your specific needs.
