Choosing between Options 1 & 2

Data sources

For Option 1, there are general textbooks on ISO 14001 (loads of them) a few of which I can get hold of easily. There are also iema magazine articles and their booklets. I would be able to access iema forums, and I know enough people in the iema offices to be put in touch with experienced people. I have experience of auditing processes, and application within the College, and casting my mind back ten years to the time when I designed and introduced an un-accredited EMS to NTL. 

For Option 2, there were many references in my Diploma module which I have to hand, some of which I still use and intend to introduce into my teaching for the NEBOSH Diploma. Also papers by ... from HSE website and elsewhere.
