Fully Accredited Program Certified Environmental Impact Assessment Manager (CEIA™)

Environmental Impact Assessments are the most effective ways to help companies reduce the risk of environmental damage and mitigate any adverse impacts on human health before any new developments. Today, EIAs are required by law in over 100 countries, including every country in North, Central and South America to ensure the sustainability of a project and its impact on the environment before it can be carried out. Additionally, global development banks, such as World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank, are now requiring EIAs as a pre-condition before financing any large-scale projects.

This certified program will walk you through every major aspect of conducting an in-depth EIA from impact identification to public involvement, environmental prediction, monitoring and quality control. You learn how to develop comprehensive quantitative and qualitative methodologies required for an effective EIA report and be exposed to international legal frameworks and environmental compliance required in every major jurisdiction (including EU, UK, US, ANZ and APAC). You will also learn how to incorporate EIA into your organization’s risk assessment and design an effective Environment Management Plan that can help your organization to offset or reduce any adverse environmental impacts to your initiatives. Finally, you will grasp the key skills required to conduct a proper Environmental Monitoring and Auditing and integrate them to create high quality EIA reports to your stakeholders.   

By the end of the program and upon passing the Chartered exam, you will have earned the Certified Environmental Impact Assessment Manager (CEIA™) designation which you can use to demonstrate your professional credentials and expertise in developing and evaluating an effective EIA.

I am so pleased to join this CEIA course where I gained knowledge and information and met with participants from other countries. It is really a value-added experience to enhance and extend my capability and expertise in my industry involvement in my country.
This was a very useful course. I have learned a lot from this course which was beyond my expectations. I was very impressed by the depth of knowledge of the course leader Marina in the subject matter. The program was very organized, time-bound, and interactive. I learned how EIA addresses ESG and also the Circular Economy and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the two hot topics nowadays. I think the knowledge gained from this course will help my career immensely. I strongly recommend others (EIA practitioners, Sustainability Experts, and Circularists) to undertake the course.
