Transition ISO 14001:2015 → 2026
One day for sites certified to ISO 14001:2015 that must move to the 2026 version before 30 April 2029. You review the changes, measure their effect on your environmental analysis, your documentation and your management review, and leave with a dated transition plan and the list of questions to put in writing to your certification body.

Frequently asked questions
Does our ISO 14001:2015 certificate remain valid until its expiry date?
Not beyond 30 April 2029. On that date, accredited certifications to the 2015 version stop being valid, even if the certificate shows a later expiry. The transition must therefore be scheduled at an earlier audit.
Is a special audit needed for the transition?
Not necessarily. The transition audit can be combined with a surveillance or renewal audit, or carried out as a special audit; the certification body decides whether extra audit time is needed. The course helps you put the question to it in writing and choose the right moment.
Is this day suitable for a site that is not yet certified?
No. It assumes an ISO 14001:2015 system is in place and deals only with gaps. For a first project, the two-day course “ISO 14001:2026 — Requirements” covers all the requirements.
Can the ISO 14001 and ISO 9001 transitions be combined?
Yes, and it is often sensible for a site certified to both standards: the two 2026 versions share the same structure. Deadlines differ, and the nearest is ISO 14001’s, on 30 April 2029. The course “Transition to ISO 9001:2026” covers the quality side.
