ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management Systems Awareness – One-Day Course
This one-day awareness course introduces delegates to environmental management systems (EMS) based on the ISO 14001:2015 standard. Attendees will learn how to interpret the standard and apply it to develop, implement, and continually improve an EMS.
Environmental management is no longer just a regulatory requirement — it is increasingly a strategic business advantage. With rising environmental legislation and growing customer focus on sustainability, organisations that adopt a systematic approach to environmental management can improve operational efficiency, reduce risk, and strengthen their competitive position.
By attending this course, participants will understand the key principles of ISO 14001:2015 and how environmental performance can contribute to both compliance and commercial success.
