  • Improve your reputation with organisational stakeholders

How will completing this course help with regulatory compliance?

The course covers how ISO 14001 helps organisations stay compliant with environmental regulations. By understanding the legal frameworks and compliance obligations outlined in the standard, you’ll be better equipped to align your organisation’s practices with relevant environmental laws.

Is this course suitable for someone with no prior knowledge of environmental management systems?

Yes, this course is perfect for individuals with little to no prior knowledge of environmental policies or management systems. It offers a basic understanding of ISO 14001, making it an excellent starting point for anyone new to the field.

Is this course beneficial for small businesses?

Yes, this course is suitable for organisations of all sizes across every industry. Whether you’re part of a small business or a large corporation, the principles of ISO 14001 can be applied.

Can my organisation be certified to ISO 14001?

Yes, if your organisation seeks certification to ISO 14001, a third-party certification audit is required. Your Environmental Management System (EMS) will be assessed by a Conformity Assessment Body (CAB) to ensure it complies with the requirements of the standard. The audit process verifies that your EMS is effectively implemented, maintained, and aligned with ISO 14001. This process is separate from any training with RTP, and you need to engage an accredited CAB to undertake the process for you.

What our students say about our courses

“The virtual classroom coupled with an enthusiastic trainer made the course easy to run through and as good as any face-to-face courses I have ever attended.”

“Honestly thought it was gonna be boring. I was very wrong! Very engaging and informative. Loved all 5 days and will be back for more courses!”

“Let’s be honest – ISO standards aren’t exactly edge-of-your-seat material. But this course proved that with the right coach, even clauses and compliance can be compelling! Packed with real-world examples, well-paced sessions, and just the right amount of workshops, it was surprisingly enjoyable. Highly recommended!”

“It was clearly evident that the lead auditor trainer had significant industry-related experience in auditing. He was able to keep the class fully engaged with personal interaction and reinforce learnings. Getting full copies of the standards was amazing, the catering and the training location in Brisbane was perfect.”

“The trainer’s experience and real-life examples gave great context to the course material. The 5 days allowed the material to be digested in a way that was not overwhelming. I’d definitely recommend the course to others.”
