IEMA Foundation Certificate in Environmental Management Reviews

very good course, well instructed by james. my only issue is some data is out of date. also with the practice questions i think there could be multiple correct answers.

Obviously online course have their limitations so would have preferred face to face, but that option wasn't available. James was an engaging fasciitator and did his best online. The content was good and engaging. It was a little dated (2021) and at times, particularly in the more dense topics, would prefer more case studies that we could relate the information to.

This foundation certificate is a great introduction to environmental management and an opportunity to set you up for the PIEMA. The work book provides you with plenty of information and reading. The presentation delivered by the trainer (James) was very informative with plenty of opportunities to refer to the learner notes and learner workbook. Overall this was a positive learning experience even though it was delivered 100% through Teams and the days can feel quite long but good breaks were factored in. Some of the course materials need updating and these were pointed out to James as part of the training he delivered.

I have very much enjoyed this course and learned a lot!. I did struggle with the all day element over a 5 day period over teams. My preference has always been classroom based learning. This is no reflection upon James teaching style however. He 'knows his onions' within the industry and has been able to share his knowledge in a comprehensive way.

The course was fantastically delivered by Rachael Gooding.

Excellent course materials, great engagement from the admin team, all brought together by an outstanding facilitator. Really enjoyed the course and looking forward to putting what I've learned into practice.

Dip was a fantastic instructor, made the course enjoyable.

Rachael was brilliant, really engaging and helpful

The course content was easy to understand and interesting. Rachael was informative and used real life scenarios and her own experience to heighten the delivery of the course material. The breakout rooms/team activities allowed us to chat amongst each other and gain best practice examples from other businesses that could inspire change in our respective companies.

It's been a fantastic week and James has made the course very enjoyable. He's extremely knowledgeable and used relevant examples throughout. He included the audience without putting pressure on anyone. Overall, a great course and I hope to cross paths with James again on other IEMA courses.
