Establishing effective waste management within any organisation that deals with waste is important. Waste can have substantial negative impacts on health and the environment. Recently, there has been a global shift away from traditional waste disposal methods and towards more environmentally safe alternatives.
Waste management is vital in protecting the environment and reducing lasting damage. Those dealing with waste must be competent and understand laws and regulations surrounding waste management to ensure full compliance with environmental protection laws. Furthermore, regular environment audits should be conducted to gather data on the surrounding environment and how practices could be developed.
There must also be an understanding of the different types of waste and how they must be disposed of differently. Some waste disposal methods are significantly more harmful than others but are difficult to change, so extra steps must be taken to help repair the environment and prevent further extreme damage.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the importance of effective environmental waste management within an organisation.
- Acknowledge the environmental implications and consequences of poor waste management.
- Assess existing waste practices and how these can be developed to be more environmentally friendly.
- Review laws and regulations surrounding waste management and disposal and closely follow guidelines.
- Explore new technologies and developments within waste management and how these can be applied to reduce environmental damage.
- Consider existing contaminated land and its influence on waste management activity.
- Engage in open conversations with other organisations and collaborate in developing environmentally conscious waste practices.
This course is designed for anyone within an organisation responsible for waste management who wishes to develop their knowledge and skills. It would be most beneficial for:
- Environmental Managers
- Suitability Advisors
- Waste Managers
- Operations Managers
- Nature Recovery Strategy Officers
- Environmental Surveyors
- Environmental Planning Directors
This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review case studies of established organisations to highlight key methods of effective waste management and identify areas where environmental damage may be prevalent.
To ensure the participants develop a full understanding of the taught content, they will participate in a variety of learning methods, including seminars, demonstrations, group discussions, and practical activities. This combination of activities guarantees that the participants can gain full comprehension of the taught knowledge and related practical skills.
Day 5 of each course is reserved for a Q&A session, which may occur off-site. For 10-day courses, this also applies to day 10
