Professor David James, as executive lead on sustainability, presented the new certificate to the team.\r\n\r\nThe University\u00a0was the first English HE institution to achieve this globally recognised standard and to include in scope both its operational and educational activities at all campuses. Keeping this status involves twice yearly audits through BSi as external assurance, supported by our internal monitoring through Sustainability Committee and our public Annual Sustainability Report. The new ISO 14001: 2015 standard demonstrates to partners and stakeholders that we \u2018walk our talk\u2019 on sustainability and that there is transparent ownership at senior management level across the organization.\r\n\r\nJonathan Wye, Alex Ryan and Michael Checkley have worked to develop the University\u2019s systems and practices to meet the new standard which is now overseen by Sustainability. As Sustainability Operations Manager, Michael Checkley has now taken over leadership of the environmental management system from Jonathan Wye and will continue to work with departments and services to maintain the registration.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/sustainability.glos.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/ISO.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Changing Communities \u2013 Changing Perceptions&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Changing Communities \u2013 Changing Perceptions&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;add Image&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.23&#8243; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;comments for all blogs&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.53&#8243; global_module=&#8221;27037&#8243;][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.22&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University has now received its formal certification onto the ISO 14001: 2015 environmental management standard, following a 2 year transition overseen by Estates and Sustainability.
