SUMMARY:Certificate in Climate Resilience for Business
DESCRIPTION:Important Dates\n\n\nApplication Deadline \n06/01/2020 \n\n\nStart Date \n13/01/2020 \n\n\nEnd Date \n24/12/2020 \n\n\n\n\nAbout this Course\n\n\n“Climate resilience is an integral component to the overall resilience of the financial system and the economy…for these reasons\, the (Central) Bank is fully committed to playing our part in ensuring that Ireland successfully responds to climate change in the coming years”.\nQuote from the concluding paragraph of the Monsignor Padraig de Brun Memorial Lecture given in NUI Galway by Professor Philip R Lane\, Governor of the Central Bank of Ireland on the 5th February 2019. \nThe programme is designed to enable graduates to work in companies and organisations in areas and roles that strategically respond to the increasing operational challenges presented by climate change. This programme is designed to foster resilience to the challenges of climate change by focusing on ways that businesses can reduce emissions and increase energy and operational efficiency. The emphasis is on increasing knowledge and developing skills in key areas where climate change directly affects enterprise operations\, such as energy supply\, carbon tax\, resource usage and waste management. The programme is intended to provide upskilling opportunities for those in supervisory or management roles in both the public and private sector. \nThe proposed SPA is a level 8 special purpose award\, based on three modules which address the key areas of climate change that affect business operations. The two core modules\, Energy and resource optimisation and Climate change and governance cover the relevant technical and legislative aspects of the programme. The third module is a work-based project which allows the student to develop and apply their newly gained knowledge by completing a project that critically addresses climate change impacts in the context of their own workplace or industry. \nStudents who are unemployed will be expected to carry out the project as work experience. \nIt is proposed that the programme will be delivered via a blended learning approach\, involving a mixture of on-line (approx. 80%) and face to face (approx. 20%) delivery. Individual student effort will be in addition to this. Classroom: Face to face classes will be held periodically during the course of the programme. \nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:WIT Lean Practitioner Seminar Series 15/01/20 (LEAN IN MICRO & SMALL ENTERPRISES - STARTING AND BEYOND)
DESCRIPTION:About the Speaker\nDave Mitchell is the RIKON Centre Commercial Manager with responsibility for Lean and Operational Excellence. He manages and delivers Business Process Improvement and Lean Business Model projects to a variety of organisations in services and manufacturing. Dave has over 25 years’ operational management experience in the private sector. He believes that the adoption of Lean is situational and different in every organisation with the involvement of people being key to sustainable success. His experience with SMEs throughout his career has shown him both the potential benefits and the opportunities for Lean adoption together with the value it can create. A recent graduate from the WIT Master of Business in Lean Enterprise Excellence\, Dave also holds qualifications in Business Systems Analysis\, Scrum Project Management\, and is a PRINCE practitioner. \nAbout the Topic\n\nLean was\, for a long time\, incorrectly portrayed as the domain of large manufacturing organisations. Dave will dispel this myth and show how Operational Excellence can be achieved in any Micro/Small business using a Lean approach. You will be introduced to the principles of Lean in plain language and shown how you can get started on the path to adopting it in a sustainable way. We will look at how supply chains are being impacted and how Lean will impact as we progress through the 4th Industrial Revolution. \nThere will also be the opportunity to gain some practical experience through some simple workshop exercises that show the benefits in terms of improving your business. \nNo prior knowledge is required – just an open mind and a desire to optimise your business.
