The Importance of Personal Development in the Field of Environmental Monitoring and MCERTS

In the current economic climate, expenditure by organisations on training has suffered a downturn. It is viewed by many that training is non-essential, and the focus is on maintaining profit margins.

However, continual improvement of staff understanding and knowledge within the areas they work should increase productivity and motivation. Plant owners also have a responsibility to ensure their staff is kept up-to-date with latest technical guidance and requirements.

With the growing acceptance of the MCERTS schemes in the UK, Europe and further afield, it is now more important than ever that manufacturers, process operators and stack-emission monitoring personnel are kept fully abreast of changes to legislation and policy.

CSA-Sira (UK), the MCERTS Certification provider, offers a range of training courses covering the various regulatory requirements for environmental monitoring.

All courses are delivered by practicing experts and engineers and are conducted at Sira training locations or at your own site.

Sira also delivers the MCERTS Personnel Competence Scheme, the scheme that enables stack-emission monitoring personnel to be certified as competent in their emission-monitoring tasks.
