Introduction

The Environmental Awareness course covers the main issues that face organisations in their attempts to better manage their environment risks by helping managers and employees to understand the part they can play in meeting their organisations obligations and lessen impacts on the environment. The main theme within the course is that by improving environmental awareness, everyone in the organisation can contribute to the reduction of impacts on the environment and play a positive part in the future of our environment. Did you know that between 1970 and 2004, total carbon dioxide emissions fell by 18%? Much of this decline has come from a reduction in emissions attributable to industry which declined by 49% since 1970. Emissions caused by domestic users have declined by 22% since 1970, but those attributable to transport have more than doubled! So based on these statistics, impacts on the environment can actually be reduced if there is a desire to do so.

Aims of the Course

Environmental Awareness will explain the main issues that impact the environment and what governments, agencies and individuals are doing to improve these risks. It will also provide the trainee with an awareness of the environment, explain how their actions at work can affect it and what they can do to reduce environmental impacts. With this aim in we believe that the module could form part of the training requirement described within the Environmental Management System Standard ISO 14001.

Who is it for?

The course is aimed at all levels of employees who are required to understand and effectively control the risks which may impact on the environment. And it will provide employees with the awareness to help meet their responsibilities.

How is it Delivered?

This Environmental Awareness course is delivered either online or through a computer network which can easily be accessed by each trainee from their own workstations and electronic devices. Should your company require it, we can facilitate the provision of the course as a SCORM compliant LMS. Not only are our eLearning courses a cost effective way of completing your statutory duty of providing training, but they also allow trainees to work at their own pace, by allowing them to save their progress and return to complete the training at a later stage.

Course Summary

The Environmental Awareness course helps managers and employees understand the issues surrounding environmental impacts and what can be done in the workplace to improve an organisation’s environmental performance.
