Higher Programme in Business Efficiency for Environmental Sustainability for Construction

Course review:

Completion of all 5 specialist workshops leads to an Environmental Academy certificate in Business Efficiency for Environmental Sustainability (Higher Programme) and the option of an ILM (Institute of Leadership and Management) endorsed certificate for a small additional fee to cover costs.

By adopting environmental best practice measures, you can expect the following benefits:

* Enhanced compliance with environmental legislation.
* Financial benefits, by efficient use of your inputs (raw materials, energy and water) and a reduction of your outputs (waste, effluent etc).
* Increasing your green credentials will also make your business more competitive and could help you win more contracts.
* Moral benefits, by reducing your company's impact on the environment AND enhancing your reputation with your workforce and clients.

The course will be delivered via a series of half day sessions and will cover five topics:

1 - Environmental Management Systems (EMS)

2 - Compliance with Environmental Legislation

3 - Resource Efficiency and Waste Minimisation

4 - Carbon Foot Printing and Energy Management

5 - Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility

Each of these topics are also available as individual training courses.

Learners receive excellent support materials and handouts, designed to both enhance learning and to provide simple tools to implement environmental good practice back in the workplace. The course is delivered by our professional Academy trainers.

This course is already being successfully delivered to ONE North East (RDA) to over 55 companies and is supported by Constructing Excellence.
