Irish businesses are under more pressure than ever to stay compliant, meet supply chain expectations, and demonstrate credible sustainability performance. Yet for many organisations, particularly SMEs, the expertise needed to navigate ISO standards, health and safety regulations, and sustainability frameworks simply isn’t available in-house.
That’s the gap Antaris Academy is built to close.
What Is Antaris Academy?
Antaris Academy is a new professional training platform from Antaris, Ireland’s leading ISO and sustainability consultancy. It delivers accredited training programmes across health and safety, risk management, quality, environment, and energy, available both publicly and as in-house training tailored to your organisation’s needs.

Why Sustainability Training Matters Now
Regulatory pressure on Irish businesses is intensifying. From evolving EU sustainability reporting requirements to supply chain due diligence obligations, organisations that can’t demonstrate compliance or competence are increasingly exposed to risk, reputational damage, and the prospect of losing contracts.
As Antaris CEO Eugene Cush puts it: “Organisations are facing a perfect storm of regulatory pressure, supply chain, climate risk and operational challenges. The Antaris Academy is designed to give businesses the practical skills and confidence they need to respond, not just to comply, but to build resilience.”
Building that internal capability is especially important for SMEs, which often lack dedicated compliance or sustainability teams but face the same external demands as larger o
A Natural Extension of Antaris’s Expanded Offering
The launch of Antaris Academy follows a period of significant growth for the consultancy. Following a strategic merger with Pragmatica, Antaris now offers over 45 sustainability services from teams in Limerick and Kildare, spanning sustainability consulting, ISO certification support, ESG strategy, and compliance.
Antaris Academy adds a training layer to this offering, enabling businesses to build competence internally rather than relying solely on external support.
