GASAA Greens Graduating ... more ISO courses start mid Feb

Participating GASAA firms in the inaugural group are::  Corporate Document Management, Digitalpress, JA Wales Printers, Rawson Graphics, Secure Print, Shepson Printing and the NSW Department of Lands – Land Property

At the successful completion of the GASAA Course in February participants will receive at the graduation dinner the association’s highest “green rating” and certification. Then after some months of demonstrating continual improvement, and when the firm is ready an independent GASAA auditor from Standards Australia will be called in to conduct the final ISO certification ... GASAA and course facilitator Paul Kohn will be around for the final hurdle.
 
The programme has been devised by Paul Kohn, a members of the ISO 14001 Standards Committee and Principal of AKP Leura, a leading consulting firm in management and control systems.  Garry Knespal, GASAA Executive Officer who has worked closely with Paul and has sat through each session commented, "Participants have benefited from the group dynamic through sharing of best practices". "Paul Kohn has done a great job in reviewing the potential risks of the specific sites, providing a unique profile for participant to monitor and improve. At the same time he has helped members prepared in a group setting the core documentation required to gain ISO certification" remarked Mr Knespal.  
 
Luke and Michelle Everingham, Principals of Shepson Printing and course participants have commented "its very good to have feedback from other companies doing the course with Shepson Printing - general discussions very helpful to share ideas and methods"
