About The GreenBizCheck Program
The GreenBizCheck Education Program is a world-leading, low cost solution for education centres that want to take environmental action. It provides independent certification endorsed by Bureau Veritas, the world's largest certification body.
All you need to do is complete a simple yet comprehensive online assessment per education centre and then implement the actions contained in the report until you achieve Bronze, Silver or Gold Certification.
Upon reaching a certification level Bureau Veritas provides a desktop audit to verify the process. There are 250+ actions designed expressly for education centres. The program also offers a 100% money-back guarantee that you will at the very least save the cost of certification if the recommended actions are implemented.
The assessment covers energy, water, waste and recycling, transportation and travel, supply chain sustainability, carbon footprint measurement and offsetting.
