The Society for the Environment is the body responsible for the registration of environmental professionals. They are the custodian of the Chartered Environmentalist register, and since 2004 have established a sound platform as the body tasked with championing and registering the expertise of environmental professionals. The Nuclear Institute holds a licence from the Society for the Environment to register professionals as Chartered Environmentalist (CEnv).
Today there are over 7000 Chartered Environmentalists registered, drawn from a range of diverse fields such as engineering, forestry and waste management. For environmental professionals independent of discipline, chartership reflects a high level of skill and experience, setting Chartered Environmentalists apart from others working in their field. It enhances career prospects through establishing proven expertise, experience and commitment to professional standards.
In the UK and across the world, Chartered Environmentalists utilise their specific expertise to lead departments, advise governments and work hands-on as practitioners.
