Sustainable Procurement with Cambio Environmental

This one day environmental training course is new for 2011 and aims to provide delegates with a solid grounding in the issues and approaches used to develop a sustainable procurement programme within an organisation.  

Course Description

The course provides an overview of the sustainable procurement process from the two viewpoints of 'product' and 'supplier' selection.   In each case the following elements are considered :

• creating an inventory of 'products' and 'suppliers'
• prioritisation of 'products' and 'suppliers' from a sustainability perspective
• assessment and selection criteria for priority 'products' and 'suppliers'
  

As with all Cambio courses, there is a mixture of tutor presentation, case study exercises and group discussions to ensure that the learning objectives for the day are clearly met.

Who should attend this environmental management course?

This course is aimed at individuals within organisations who are involved in implementing a sustainable procurement strategy or attempting to roll out their environmental improvement programme to their supply chain.  Whether you are being tasked to undertake such a step by your own customers or whether it is part of your own ISO14001 environmental improvement programme, this environmental training course is for you.   Attendance on this and similar courses may also be used to support your CPD requirements as a member of the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA) and similar organisations.
