ABOUT THE COURSE
You have access to the latest equipment, software and facilities for acoustics measurement and modelling and you are taught by an experienced teaching team with consultancy and research expertise in outdoor events and environmental noise.
From the growing number of outdoor music festivals and increases in vehicle and aircraft movements to developments in fields such as renewable energy, the ability to correctly measure and monitor noise is a key requirement of planning and regulating noise in a variety of areas.
The Institute of Acoustics (IoA)’s Certificate of Competence in Environmental Noise Measurement is designed for professionals who may not need more formal qualifications in acoustics. These include environmental health officers, health and safety officers, sound engineers, event managers, urban planners, environmental consultants, HVAC engineers and construction managers.
Holders of the CCENM are entitled to apply for technician membership of the IOA, subject to one year’s experience working in a relevant area.
YOUR FUTURE
The IoA Certificate of Competence is a highly valuable qualification both for new staff in acoustics consulting and for anyone involved in planning outdoor developments or events (including events management companies, architects, architectural technologists and development officers for large companies).
It is also relevant for people who are consulting on noise impact (for example as part of an environmental impact assessment) or responsible for enforcing legislation on noise pollution (environmental health officers).
The certificate is also a core part of CPD for many other fields, in particular environmental health and environmental consulting, and successful completion allows you to apply for technician-grade membership of the Institute of Acoustics.
Graduates from this course have worked in Local Authorities, acoustic consultancies, environmental consulting, facilities management, event management and live sound.
We offer opportunities to continue study in Acoustics with the Institute of Acoustics Diploma in Acoustics and Noise Control (meeting the educational requirement for corporate membership of the IoA), and also offer an MSc in Applied Acoustics.
My name is Kavisha Prince Anthony, and I always had a dream of studying abroad. Thankfully, that dream came to life since I applied to the Study Advisor. I was able to receive my visa within four days. I also had some visa refusals in the past; I had about six UK visa refusals in the past, but thankfully, it was not an issue since the Study Advisor was able to make things work this time. I highly recommend Study Advisor for your dreams of going abroad, whether it be the UK or any other European country there is.
