Welcome to EMANZ Training / Education Programmes and Activities Page
As part of playing an active role in improving energy use, EMANZ promotes training and continuous professional development in energy management.
EMANZ is currently developing its own training programme to complement and enhance existing training programmes. EMANZ is also in the process of developing an accreditation framework that formally recognizes the levels of competency an individual has achieved in relation to Energy Management.
