Waste to Wisdom Sustainability Approaches of Scheduled Waste Part 1
12 - 13 OCTOBER 2026
COURSE INTRODUCTION
This programme helps environmental and operations teams manage scheduled waste as both a compliance responsibility and a resource-efficiency opportunity. Participants review waste identification, classification, documentation, labelling, segregation, treatment options and digital tracking approaches that support safer handling and more sustainable waste management. Practical examples and guided discussion help participants connect the subject to decisions and challenges in their own workplace.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
By the end of this programme, participants should be able to:
- Explain the core concepts, terminology and working principles related to Waste to Wisdom Sustainability Approaches of Scheduled Waste Part 1.
- Apply structured methods and industry good practices for Scheduled Waste Identification, Classification & Segregation, 1 Waste Identification Process, and 2 Waste Composition and Hazard Determination.
- Evaluate relevant energy & sustainability situations and identify risks, gaps and improvement opportunities.
- Translate the learning into practical workplace actions and sound technical decisions.
COURSE OUTCOME
Upon completion, participants will be better prepared to:
- Assess relevant workplace situations using the concepts and methods covered in Waste to Wisdom Sustainability Approaches of Scheduled Waste Part 1.
- Select and apply appropriate tools, checks or controls for Scheduled Waste Identification, Classification & Segregation, 1 Waste Identification Process, and 2 Waste Composition and Hazard Determination.
- Recommend actions that support energy performance, regulatory readiness and practical sustainability action.
- Communicate findings, improvement opportunities and next steps clearly to relevant stakeholders.
