** LKIC, Tuesday, November 15, 2011 from 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM  **

ISO 14001 the Environmental Management Standard is the highly prestigious and  only internationally recognised environment management standard. It is often considered a preserve of the larger international plc’s and the high flying big names in an industry and only relevant to them? This is not true.

This highly prized international accreditation is relevant, obtainable and affordable by any small business and is fast becoming almost mandatory for SME’s wanting to bid for larger contracts, particularly where there is a public sector link. You may be following a sound environmental policy but how can you reassure the world of business that what you say you do, you really do it?

Join our workshop lead by a qualified Lead Auditor for ISO 14001 and learn how you can start to put ISO 14001 standards at the heart of your management systems.
