The awarding body’s page Fees, dates and entry requirements are there, not here.

What it is

A short programme in making an event less wasteful and more beneficial: food, materials and emissions, access for people with disabilities, responsible purchasing, and measuring and reporting all of it. Many sponsors and funders now ask organisers about sustainability, and someone who has completed this programme has a documented answer and a written plan.

Who it suits

Event organisers at every level, in-house event teams in public bodies and universities, and venue and service providers.

What it requires

None.

How it is earned

Self-paced online modules with a workbook from which the participant builds a plan for their own events. Its hours count towards CMP continuing education, and it counts as one course towards the CEM; both are in this directory.
