Company History

ICANDO was founded in 1998 as an environmental and waste management consultancy and training company, based in Waterfall, KwaZulu Natal. Offices have since been established in Johannesburg, Gauteng and in Cape Town in the Western Cape.

Projects undertaken have included Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), environmental audits and the facilitation of public participation processes and training in environmental and waste management.

ICANDO is an accredited training provider (Local Government and Water SETA registration number 14-146-112007). Our learning modules and programmes are aligned with the Environmental Practice unit standards. A key focus area is Waste Management for learners in both the public and private sectors. Learner feedback on these courses has been very positive.

Icando's Mission Statement

ICANDO will provide high quality, up-to-date environmental consultation services, learning and awareness programmes and facilitation services to government, business and communities to enable them to manage their waste and environment better.

We are an accredited training provider, providing aligned, outcomes-based learning programmes and courses that are learner-centred and designed to meet the training needs of the waste and environmental management sectors. It is our aim to challenge learners to go back to their own situations and make a difference there. We provide them with networking opportunities and encourage them to develop innovative ways to use waste as a resource for developing entrepreneurial skills.
