ISO 14031 Environmental Performance Evaluation (EPE)

Description

***From July onwards, SGS also provide e-certificate and e-document (e-document will be provided for In-house training only). This enables leaners to be free from certificate loss, to reduce storage space, and ultimately to be environmental-friendly to which SGS’s current policy is attached.***

This course is a guideline to achieve international environmental management standard that eventually sets out a process called “Environmental Performance Evaluation (EPE)” enabling an organization to measure, evaluate, and communicate their environmental performance using key performance indicator (KPIs). EPE is applicable to either small or large enterprises and can be used to support an Environmental Management System (EMS) or used independently.

The Course refers to ISO 14031:2013 giving a guidance to a design and use of EPE across an organization.
