Course Description and Aims
The applied learning approach focuses on the application of the core environmental knowledge to your own organisation. It is designed to appeal to those with a practical learning style, based on the concept of ‘learning by doing’.
Outline programme
The course is made up of six compulsory units each requiring a range of evidence to demonstrate competence in each unit has been achieved. You will be required to produce a Reflective Management Report, for each unit to demonstrate your understanding of the underpinning knowledge and provide evidence to demonstrate your ability to apply that knowledge to your own organisation.
The units are:
- Global Environmental Issues

- Environmental Techniques

- Environmental Communications
- Sustainability
You will produce evidence to specific criteria as outlined in the unit descriptors. This evidence will then be assessed by the Assessor to ensure all the criteria has been achieved and independently quality checked by a structured sampling verification by an Internal Verifier.
Candidates will receive a complementary copy of the IEMA handbook ‘Environmental Management in Organizations’ by John Brady as a core text
Delivery
The course is based on a distance learning approach; you will have spoken with the tutor who outlined the course structure and assessment process. You will research and produce evidence for each unit. The tutor will keep in regular contact with you via email and telephone to give directed support tailored to your individual needs.
On a regular basis you will have pre-arranged telephone meetings with your tutor to review your evidence and develop your next guided learning plan. The duration of the course will depend on your previous experience and ability to produce evidence.
Total learning time will be around 90 learning hours. It is expected that candidates will complete the course in an average of 6 months; although this is dependent on previous experience and work commitments, in order to accommodate this, the course is offered with 12 month support.
Flexible start dates for all students can be accommodated in person or via distance learning
