Fleet Electrification and Sustainable Transport Management

Organisations operating vehicle fleets are under growing pressure to reduce emissions, comply with clean-air regulation and control rising operating costs. This course provides a practical guide to fleet electrification and sustainable transport, covering vehicle technology options, total cost of ownership, charging infrastructure, energy management, route and utilisation optimisation, driver behaviour and emissions reporting. Participants assess their current fleet and develop a phased transition plan that balances cost, operational needs and sustainability goals.

Good to know

A few things to know.

How is the course delivered?

Our classroom programmes combine facilitated discussion, case studies, exercises and reflection. The precise format will be confirmed before enrolment.

Can you deliver this programme for our team?

Yes, you can enquire about a tailored programme. Share your goals, group size and preferred dates with our learning team.

Will I receive a certificate?

Participants who complete the programme receive a Smart Horizon certificate of attendance. Smart Horizon programmes are not externally accredited and do not award a professional qualification, licence or designation. Where a course title or outline refers to a professional certification (for example, AACE International's Certified Cost Professional), the programme supports learning and preparation only; the credential itself is awarded solely by the relevant professional body under its own application and examination requirements.

What should I confirm before booking travel?

Please confirm the session, exact venue, accessibility arrangements, fees and any visa requirements with the team before arranging travel. Tentative dates are not confirmed sessions.
