Training Opportunities for Hampshire Businesses

Alongside the ongoing Sustainable Business Networks programme, the SBP also works closely with partners to deliver, facilitate and coordinate a range of training opportunities for businesses across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. These allow us to explore specific subjects in greater detail, offer certificated, accredited or CPD'd courses, and respond to identified or emerging knowledge and skills gaps. All of our own training courses and those of our many partner organsiations are listed in our Events Calendar.

Intensive Lead Auditor Training

The SBP is organising a second five-day lead auditor training course following the success of the first one in July 2010. By working with our partners we are able to offer this IEMA-recognised and certificated programme at significantly lower than the normal market rate. Eligible businesses are able to further benefit from a 50% delegate fee subsidy from the Manufacturing Advisory Service but whether or not they qualfy for this any organsiation is able to join us at the reduced SBP rate. The course is particularly appropriate for environmental managers of medium and large organisations, owner-managers of small and medium businesses, and anyone interested in developing a skill base which would allow them to audit businesses and implement an environmental management system consistent wioth ISO14001 or BS8555.

The course will be held in Havant on the week commencing October 4th 2010. Spaces are strictly limited to ten delegates and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Please contact the SBP for further details.Enviroskills.
