Protecting the Environment eLearning Module

The Environmental Protection Act (1990) imposes a duty of care on anyone who produces, stores, transports or disposes of waste.  

We need to protect the environment for future generations, both at home and at work. Not only this is ethical, but it's a legal requirement. The Protecting the Environment eLearning course we created will help you to better understand your role in protecting the environment and to ensure you don't neglect your responsibilities.   

The Environmental Protection Act (1990) imposes a duty of care on anyone who produces, stores, transports or disposes of waste.  You must take reasonable steps to ensure the waste is managed properly. The training module will enable the user to take an active role in the protection of the environment and implement steps in their work place to have a lasting positive impact on the planet.

The Protecting the Environment eLearning module is suitable for anyone employed in an office environment. It is a fully online interactive course and assessment, accessible on any device, 24/7, with no time limits.  A certificate can be downloaded upon successful completion of the eLearning module.
