Envolve Business offers a range of internal training courses to allow your organisation to improve its knowledge base. All courses are tailored to client needs and specifications allowing for greater applicability and therefore higher levels of engagement by delegates.
Introduction to Environmental Management (Systems & Standards)
This half day training course provides delegates with an introduction to Environmental Management Systems and the different standards for good practice that businesses can achieve including ISO 14001, BS8555 and EMAS.
EMS Implementation training (using BS8555 Approach)
This course is broken down into 6 modules corresponding with the six phases of BS8555. BS8555 is a new standard developed for small business and breaks the task of developing an Environmental Management System and achieving ISO 14001 or EMAS into "manageable chunks". Delegates can choose to attend the whole course or just select the modules appropriate to the phase they want their business to reach. At the end of attending the course delegates will have the skills and practical experience to develop an EMS to BS8555 standard within their businesses with minimal guidance.

Sessions are tailored to the specific environmental issues and ambitions of your organisation. We have flexibility to deliver in the sessions in a way to suit the target audience (tool box talks, management / board briefings). If you are seeking to raise awareness as part of your work toward ISO 14001 then we can ensure that these sessions fulfil the requirements of ISO 14001 clause 4.4.2 Competence, Training and Awareness.
