Course Overview

Certificate seal iconThis 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.

Auditors must have the knowledge of the field of activity in which they will carry out their audit, as well as:

  • Environmental management systems and policies
  • Pollution control technology
  • The environment in general
  • The environmental requirements of state and federal regulations

Who Should Attend?

The information presented in this course can benefit individuals from a variety of professional backgrounds. Past participants have included:

  • Consultants
  • Engineers
  • Environmental Compliance Managers
