"The Certificate IV in Environmentally Sustainable Management has helped me a lot with establishing environmental initiatives in the workplace. I have developed a list of 30 initiatives from the course - some we already had in place, but a lot we didn't. I am now implementing one every three months and closing it out prior to implementing the next one. Also, the course had some very interesting information in relation to climate change and what we can do as people to reduce our own carbon footprint as well as that of our workplaces. It's made me really consider my actions and how they effect the environment. This is a great course from my perspective. All HSE professionals should complete it to really get some movement in the ‘E’ space which I believe is lacking across the board."
