THE BUSINESS TIME’s view

For a Polish business in the UK, the most practical offer is the Institute of Sustainability Studies: 20% off and free skills mapping. CPD certification is well recognised by UK customers and contracting authorities – it shows the company has someone on the team trained in sustainability.

Prices in partner offers are in euros, and training is delivered in English. PMI courses are useful for companies running construction, installation and IT projects – specifications increasingly require a project sustainability management plan.

We will help match training to your sector and company size, and in our online training we will go over the key content in Polish.
