Subject: BEMA Requirement......e-Learning Course. The Fight Against Corruption
As of Monday, January 13, 2014 PLEASE BE
ADVISED THAT THIS ONLINE TRAINING WILL BE A REQUIREMENT FOR ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
IN BEMA, future certification process, and our participation in the global
arena will require incorporating certain requirements to ensure our
professionalism and credibility.
Use the following URL to complete the
course. We will not be tracking certification completion, but relying on
your ethics as a professional that you’ve completed the training when asked, or
when a procedure is instituted to track membership training requirements.
I know this is a last minute requirement, but
for me to make any statement at public events of your association to address corruption
issues then a standard has to be set to meet that requirement.
Please feel free to contact me at any time for
additional information.
Charles
BEMA Network:
As part of our partnership in the UN Global
Compact I highly recommend this course for all members, and affiliates with a
global presence.
In order to move forward in establishing our
relationships internationally the issue of corruption has to be discussed
openly to ensure that changes take place.

“We are now faced with the
fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency
of now. In this unfolding conundrum of
life and history there is such a thing as being too late.
Procrastination is still the thief of time.
Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost
opportunity. This may well be
mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or community.”

Health Series:
Net Zero: A Global Health Opportunity
|
As the world continues to
tackle the coronavirus pandemic, global cities are taking steps to protect
their citizens from the climate crisis and future public health shocks.
In
this fourth and final webinar in CDP’s Climate and Urban Health series, we
will enable cities to better understand what it means to set a ‘net zero
target’ and how science-based targets and co-benefit solutions drive the
low-carbon transition in ways that work for and protect citizens.
We will be
joined by
José Siri, Senior Science Lead for Cities with the Wellcome Trust’s
Our Planet Our Health Team and
Maia Kutner, Associate Director with CDP
Cities, States & Regions, who leads CDP’s Cities’ work on Science Based
Targets and Race to Zero.
We’ll also welcome
Celia Peterson, Environmental
Sustainability Project Manager in Park City (Utah). Park City has made one of
North America’s most ambitious climate goals: to be net-zero carbon and run
on 100% renewable electricity for city operations by 2022, and for the whole
community to be net zero by 2030.
