How "Easy to be Green" works for you
You gain real ownership of the system that works for you
This is practical, common sense, no nonsense award winning training and online consultancy that is proven over many years
- Choose your own pace to fit in with your workload
- You do not have to travel
- You have audio files as well as written so that busy people have the flexibility to do their training while they are commuting. Research shows that busy people are often too busy during the day and too tired at the end of it to read more information - a left brain function - but they can still learn effectively by listening to audio which uses the right side of their brain. Much more time effective.
- Help is still just an email away
- And you join a phone conference each week to make sure you fully understood what was in that session - recorded in case you miss it or are interrupted.
You do this in 3 steps where each step is a 4 week module
Step 1 Build a good foundation. You will mindmap all your activities, understand your legal compliance issues and build an affective management plan that is the basis of the work in Modules 2 and 3. You can choose to include environment, occupational safety, quality and/or food safety (HACCP) modules to allow you to tailor a system to suit your business..
Step 2 Build Your System based on the resources you identified in Module 1 and add feedback, contingency planning and a documented structure to make sure that the plans you developed in Module 1 go on working.
Step 3 Complete Your System Add a straight forward manual and add even more feedback and continuous improvement with auditor training and review. Then be ready for Certification to ISO 14001 or its "baby brother" EnviroCert
..and you will be surprised how little it all costs and how much help you get...... AND you can do it online so you don't even need to leave your business.
ISO 14001, the International Standard for environmental management in around four months - You can do that!
The modules must be done in the right order. It is a bit like building a new garden. First you prepare your soil and the better you do this, the better your garden will grow. Then in Module 2 you add the seeds and in Module 3 you maintain your garden with your internal audits and review.
Yes, there is a time commitment needed from you because you are improving your business but you will find that when your system is in place, you will save time and money.
You build your system with the three modules (90 days total) and we leave about 2-3 weeks between modules. When you have completed all three modules, you can be ready for audit. 
If you want to integrate other modules like quality, occupational safety and HACCP this is easy because they are available as additional step 1 modules.
Some people learn by reading things and some learn by hearing. Most of us learn best with a mixture of both approaches plus doing. Each session provides both the reading and the hearing. You provide the ‘doing’ as you read and listen to the files and use or adapt the templates to build your own system. Then we follow up with a teleseminar and help is available between sessions when people find a problem.
