The ISO 14001:2026 webinar – Development, key changes, and transition – will provide a clear and updated overview of the revision of ISO 14001, focusing on the development process, the expected changes compared to the 2015 version, and the timelines and transition rules. The event will also address how organizations can practically prepare for the new edition of the standard, ensuring a smooth and effective transition.
ISO 14001, the international standard for environmental management systems, is undergoing a revision process that will result in the publication of ISO 14001:2026, scheduled for April 2026. Although the changes are considered limited compared to the 2015 revision, they bring important adjustments for greater clarity, alignment with the ISO Harmonized Structure, and strengthening of relevant environmental topics such as climate change, life cycle, and risk and opportunity management.
In this webinar, we will explore how the new version of ISO 14001 is being developed, what the main expected changes are compared to the current edition, and what organizations need to consider now to prepare for the transition. The planned timelines will also be presented, along with the role of the IAF in defining transition rules and the expectations for migrating existing certificates.
Additionally, the event will provide a practical perspective on how to support companies, auditors, and environmental management system professionals in this process, highlighting training, self-assessment tools, and other forms of support to ensure compliance and continuous improvement of environmental performance.
