Course Overview
This class is part of the NJDEP Qualified Environmental Air Compliance Auditor Program.
Staying current with regulations and maintaining compliance (not to mention avoiding fines, penalties, and pollution problems) is important to the success of any business. The basics of auditing, along with an update on regulations, tools, and resources, will be presented in this course to help your business stay in compliance.
Managing your company’s environmental compliance means reducing exposure to unnecessary environmental risks. When it comes to potential savings that can be identified through an environmental audit, an auditor can examine the facility’s environmental records and the organization’s environmental policies and regulatory responsibilities. Companies with good environmental management systems incorporate the principles of resource conservation and pollution prevention into their everyday practices to help achieve regulatory compliance.
Featured Topics

- Environmental management systems and policies

Senior Project Engineer“This course had a lot of interesting information regarding reporting for small businesses. I liked how the program explained the different requirements for different types of small businesses, such as dry cleaning facilities. I learned how to report for CRTK and plan to explain it to others who have questions with reporting.”
