The Prince's Mayday Network

Environment Peer Learning Programme

Programme Objectives and highlights

The Environment Peer Learning Network is being run through the Mayday Network and allows individuals with environment as their core role within Mayday businesses to share challenges and best practice solutions face-to-face with their peers in order to:

- make their role easier and more efficient by sharing experiences and solutions

- progress environmental management and performance in their own business

- increase personal knowledge on business management of current environmental issues

The programme is split into two different level groups to allow individuals with varying ranges of experience to work with others in similar situations. The programme runs over 12 months (January to December) during which time participants are expected to join bi-monthly three hour meetings covering a range of environmental topic areas.

Through the programme participants will benefit from:

- Peer networking in an honest and confidential environment in their own group and across both level groups

- Practical advice and guidance from real life experiences of your peers

- BITC insight into emerging trends, best practices and outside support

- Introduction to long term peer relationships to support you through your environmental career

- Access to high profile guest speakers

- Free places at the Environment Knowledge Swap events
