Stay ahead of ISO 14001 changes and navigate your transition with confidence

ISO 14001 remains the leading global standard for environmental management, helping organizations improve performance, meet compliance obligations, and achieve sustainability goals.

In addition to technical clarifications, ISO/FDIS 14001 (Final Draft International Standard) introduces important updates that reflect emerging international priorities such as climate change, natural capital, and biodiversity. It also emphasises the importance of supply chain management, adopting lifecycle principles, and effective planning and management of change.

This one-day transition course is designed for organizations already certified to ISO 14001:2015. It provides clear insight into the new requirements and clarifications, implications for implementation, and guidance on how these amendments impact auditing activities – helping you stay ahead and maintain confidence in your environmental management system.

Delegates who attend this course will be updated free of charge should there be any changes between the ISO/FDIS and final standard.
