Energy Management System
Welcome to the LICQual ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management System course, designed to equip the learner with advanced skills in energy management and auditing. Aligned with the ISO 50001:2018 standard, this course provides the learner with the knowledge to plan, implement, monitor, and improve energy management systems effectively.
As organizations face increasing energy demands and sustainability pressures, the learner develops the competence to evaluate energy performance, identify efficiency opportunities, and lead energy audits that drive measurable improvements.
The learner explores key concepts including energy policy, objectives, targets, action plans, and continual improvement strategies. Through practical case studies and expert-led instruction, the learner gains hands-on experience in auditing techniques, risk assessment, and reporting processes.
By the end of the course, the learner is prepared to assume the role of Lead Auditor, guiding organizations in maximizing energy efficiency, reducing operational costs, and contributing to environmental sustainability in full compliance with ISO 50001:2018 standards.
