This require continuous improvement and an agile environment supporting disruptive change. A high level of skills and an understanding of the international standards will better enable businesses to do so in a sustainable manner. Training should therefore be very high on the agenda today to enable a mutual level of trust between stakeholders. This business partnership with PECB will assist to elevate the level of best practice application to the advantage of the organization, as well as its stakeholders in support of their objectives.
