Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions reinforce theoretical knowledge through hands-on activities. Learners conduct environmental risk assessments, develop EMPs, perform compliance audits, and analyse monitoring data, preparing them for real-world environmental management roles.

Practical Activities

• Practical 1: Environmental Risk Assessment — Learners work in groups to identify environmental aspects and impacts of a simulated industrial activity, using a risk assessment matrix. (3h)
• Practical 2: Developing an Environmental Management Plan — Using a case study, learners develop an EMP including objectives, targets, monitoring, and corrective actions. (3h)
• Practical 3: Environmental Compliance Audit — Learners conduct a mock compliance audit using a checklist on a simulated site, identifying non-conformances and drafting audit findings. (3h)
• Practical 4: Monitoring Data Analysis and Reporting — Learners analyse provided air and water quality monitoring data, identify trends, and prepare a summary report for management. (3h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.
