IEMA (the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment) is the largest professional body for environmental practitioners in the United Kingdom and worldwide, with nearly 20,000 members.
Completion of our IEMA approved training courses can contribute towards your IEMA membership grades.
There is an online assessment for the IEMA Pathways to Net Zero course, consisting of 20-question multiple-choice test. The test is completed through the IEMA assessment portal and candidates are sent a link upon registration to the assessment.
Certificates are provided by IEMA to delegates who successfully complete the course. These can be added to your CV, uploaded to platforms such as LinkedIn, and shared with your colleagues as evidence of your new skills.
We do recommend that you have working experience of sustainability issues to get maximum benefit from the course. This is however not a formal requirement.
We run our 1-day IEMA certified Carbon Foorprinting and Reporting course immediately prior to this course to give you greater depth to your sustainability knowledge.
