ISO 14001:2026 Transition Training Course

Who Should Attend

Our ISO 14001 course is aimed at employees and contractors leading the transition to ISO 14001:2026. It is suitable for all levels within an organisation, but is relevant to project managers and department heads responsible for understanding the changes required for the updated standard.

Why Is ISO 14001 Changing?

ISO 14001 is being revised to reflect evolving environmental priorities, regulatory pressures, and stakeholder expectations. The 2026 update strengthens requirements around climate change, decarbonisation, supply chain sustainability, and measurable environmental performance – ensuring Environmental Management Systems remain credible, effective, and aligned with global environmental objectives.

These revisions go beyond minor technical amendments. They influence how organisations assess environmental risks, manage impacts, and demonstrate continual improvement within their management systems. 

Learn about the ISO 14001 Transition.

The latest revision builds on this foundation, strengthening alignment with modern business practices, sustainability expectations, and regulatory realities. 

What Is the ISO 14001:2026 Transition Course? 

The ISO 14001:2026 Transition Course is a one-day training course, delivered by Amtivo – that will cover all the changes required to your management system against the updated requirements of the ISO 14001:2026 standard.  

The updated standard is expected to be published in early 2026 along with a transition timeframe in which to have your management system audited to the new requirements. 

The course will not only cover the accepted principles of the environmental standard but will also give each participant a detailed understanding of the new requirements and how your current management system might need to be amended to capture the updates.
