Whether you wish to be accredited yourself, for an individual event you are running, or for your company or organisation. Check out the below options of what is on offer internationally and tailored for the event industry.
Events INDUSTRY Council
We are on the Sustainability and Social
Impact Committee and a proud contributor to the Sustainable Event Professional
Certificate programme.
The SEPC programme is for those events
professionals interested in accelerating sustainability and social impact in
their organisations and global business events. The programme provides guidance
that will be valuable for reaffirming our industry’s commitment to a recovery
that is resilient, sustainable and equitable.
This course has recently been expanded from
the in-person programme and provides the knowledge and tools for event
strategists to design and implement their own sustainable events. Developed by
a globally diverse group of business events industry leaders and experts in the
areas of sustainability, social impact and event management, this highly
interactive and accessible format takes users on an engaging, insightful and
easy-to-follow journey.
The Sustainable Event Professional
Certificate is comprised of 16 modules that include understanding the business
value of sustainability, improving environmental performance of meetings and
events, and effective methods for achieving social impact goals. As part of the
programme, participants will have access to a digital workbook with activities
to customise a roadmap for their own sustainable event. The course culminates
in a straightforward “Final Sustainable Capstone Project”; a certificate of
completion for 12 CEs and digital badge is awarded as a result.
