RMD Training And The Environment


RMD Training is committed to minimizing the impact of our activities on the environment.

The key points of our strategy to achieve this are:

  • Minimise waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible.
  • Actively promote recycling both internally and amongst our customers and suppliers.
  • Proactively monitor and manage energy usage. For example, the meter on the right is a realtime indicator of the energy we are currently using.

Course Materials

We previously provided course materials in hard copy form, often running into hundreds of pages of manuals and usually never looked at again. We now, unless specifically requested, provide course materials from our online web site as electronic media


Hardware

Many large corporate organizations refresh their IT systems every three years, much of this equipment is fine for use in teaching environments. Where possible we purchase hardware from these sources



Ecotricity is our electricity supplier

 meet its  targets for renewable electricity generation.

The company develops and runs wind farms and also acts
 as an energy supplier, investing all its  profits back
 into developing more renewable energy.
