Our online environmental awareness training courses are designed for individuals working in offices and industrial settings. These courses provide users with an understanding of why sustainable business practices are necessary. Users will learn about current threats to the environment and what can be done to reduce or reverse the harm.
By taking these courses, users understand their role in environmental protection and how they can integrate efficient and eco-friendly practices into their work.
Every organisation bears a legal, moral and financial responsibility to lessen its environmental impact. The UK is already witnessing the repercussions of climate change, such as heatwaves and record-setting temperatures. As a result, the government has set climate goals that all organisations must support, with widespread support from consumers and business leaders.
Investing in sustainable production systems also makes good business sense. Organisations can enhance resource efficiency, lower costs and bolster long-term profitability.
Our Environmental Awareness Training programmes educate participants on environmental issues and how their actions impact the environment. Participants learn practical strategies to reduce carbon footprints and minimise waste.
The courses also help organisations meet environmental regulations and standards, reducing the risk of non-compliance and preventing reputational damage.
Employers have a moral and legal duty to promote sustainability and reduce environmental impact.
To fulfil this environmental responsibility, they must:
- Adhere to environmental regulations and standards

- Develop environmental management systems to enhance environmental performance
- Educate employees on sustainability and encourage participation

- Incorporate sustainability into business strategy and decision-making processes
These duties are reinforced by various environmental laws, including the:
- Environmental Protection Act 1990
- Environment Act 1995
- Climate Change Act 2008
- Environment Act 2021
