Course Description

Environmental Performance Evaluation (EPE) enables organizations to assess the status of their environmental performance and identify areas for improvement. The selections of key performance indicators (KPI) are an important factor in EMS implementation and can help an organization demonstrate performance improvement to a variety of interested parties.



Course Objective

 

At the end of this course, participants will be able to:

·          describe the key steps in an EPE model

·          explain the role of EPE in developing, maintaining and improving an EMS

·         identify a range of performance indicators

·         select suitable indicators to track environmental performance


Programme Aims

This course is ideal for those who are developing an EMS or looking to improve an existing one. Building on the international standard ISO 14031, this course will allow participants to develop a process which provides a current evaluation of performance as well as performance trends over time.
