As part of it's commitment to raising the awareness of sustainability and engaging staff to make a difference, the University has implemented an online e-module which is compulsory for new starters and can also be accessed as part of the staff development process. Staff are also offered with students the opportunity to be trained as Environmental Auditors of the University EMS. Read the case study (PDF).
Call for student auditors - do you want to volunteer and receive training as an ISO14001 Internal Environmental Auditor - email sustainability@cardiffmet.ac.uk to secure your place.
