What do others say about Affiliate membership?

I joined IEMA shortly after being handed environmental management responsibilities for our organisation and being tasked with delivering an Environmental Management System appropriate for our business and to meet the ISO 14001 standard. IEMA membership has given me the skills and confidence to progress not only my professional and personal development and but was instrumental in helping provide to establish our EMS which is now fully operational and ISO 14001 certified. The IEMA training I have undertaken since becoming a member has also introduced me to wider environmental and social issues, which has encouraged me to not only advance my IEMA membership level but inspired me to enrol on an Environmental Studies degree – something I would never have considered just a couple of years ago! If you’re considering joining IEMA, my advice would be to go for it. It will not only open up opportunities, but it will also open your eyes.

Gary Price, EHS Manager

IEMA helped me connect with experts and professionals all across the UK, and let me engage in interesting discussions and seminars!
