20 years of CEnv careers | Live webinar
In the month marks 21 years since the Society for the Environment achieved Royal Charter status way back in 2004, we talk to three CEnvs about their careers, and what CEnv means to them, their work and the wider world. We’ll reflect on progress to date, as well as looking to the future.
One of our guests successfully applied for her CEnv registration in 2004 – becoming one of the first 400 CEnv registrants. Steph will be joined by two CEnvs who have registered relatively recently – in 2023 and 2024 (guest details below). Different perspectives, career paths, and areas of expertise make the CEnv community extremely valuable!
Register today for free to join us, listen in, and ask your questions. We look forward to welcoming you.
