CIWM (Wamitab) training

This comprehensive three-day course will give you an understanding of the broad scope of the waste and resources management sector and practical experience to help you do your job. This course attracts delegates from a wide range of organisations creating the perfect opportunity to pick up ideas and best practice examples from both tutors and practitioners working in a variety of settings.

This course will set the scene for waste and resource management in relation to current policy, strategy, and key legislation. It introduces the concept of circular economy and explores the various aspects of the waste hierarchy which are brought to life through a series of activities and workshops and two informative site visits (MRF, End of Life Vehicle Site, Energy from Waste Site).

Gain a detailed understanding of regulations governing the wastes that are classified as hazardous and get up-to-date advice on how to comply with the regulations.

Develop the skills you need to correctly classify the different types of hazardous waste and make sure you’re up-to-date with the very latest regulations.

Understand the hazards associated with managing and handling hazardous waste to ensure safe, effective and legally compliant practice.

This course explains which wastes are classified as hazardous and provides up-to-date advice on how to comply with the regulations.

Are you dealing with special wastes and need to ensure you are classifying them correctly and assigning the appropriate codes? Do you need to ensure you are up to date with the changes in the new version of the Regulators’ guidance WM3 and the changing European Regulations? Whether a special waste producer or a treatment/disposal facility operator, this course will give you a detailed explanation of the process and an opportunity to practice waste classification with tutored support.

Gain essential knowledge to ensure you control the management of waste and comply with your waste Duty of Care obligations. Duty of Care legislation applies to every business in the UK that produces, handles or controls waste. If your organisation is a licensed waste business or produces controlled waste then you have strict waste ‘duty of care’ obligations. That means you and any of your staff involved in the transport, handling, treatment, control or disposal of waste need to understand your responsibilities, how to comply with waste legislation, the waste code of practice and how to avoid waste crime.
