Following the course, participants have an opportunity for further development, where their subsequent in-company EMS audits can be observed and tutored to provide practical on-site training. If you would like us to follow up the course with a tutored audit, please let us know when you enquire.
Learning materials are provided and an IEMA Learner’s Manual is included in the booking price.
Our trainers are experienced environmental consultants who promote discussion and a relaxed atmosphere during their training sessions. We encourage you to test their knowledge, and they are open to questions from delegates regarding auditing, transition and applying the skills learned to real life situations.
At ESP we cater for all learning styles when we teach, and we like to keep things interesting! Practical workshops are designed to reinforce the discussions and topics, including basic auditor techniques, environmental policy critique, audit planning, nonconformity writing, conducting audit interviews, and reporting results. This style of delivery makes the course both memorable and enjoyable for participants, ensuring long-term learning.
We also like you to check in with yourself during the course. Each section of the syllabus is self-assessed as we learn to see how you have improved your learning over the course.
The last day of the course finishes with a written exam. The exam is marked by the tutor after the course has been delivered and the results will be sent you individually, with some personal feedback on how you got on. You will also be posted an IEMA certificate.
Each course venue is in a central location, which is easily accessible by public transport. We provide our delegates with refreshments and lunch each day and can cater to any dietary requirements you may have.
We can also deliver this course to you at your own site if you have 3 or more delegates.
