Sustainable event management is event management with particular concern for environmental, economic and social issues. Sustainability in event management incorporates socially and environmentally responsible decision making into the planning, organization and implementation of, and participation in, an event.

The Sustainable Event Certification encourages event planners across both University College and Global Campus to implement more sustainable practices by providing them with a framework. 

Events can be certified at the Bronze (25%), Silver (45%), Gold (65%), and Platinum (85%) levels. 

All faculty, staff, and student organizations can participate in this certification program. For the purpose of this program, events are defined as campus functions that engage students, faculty, and staff including but not limited to celebrations, dances, lectures, forums, performances, demonstrations, social gatherings, concerts, speaker presentations, and conferences. For example, recurring Student Association meetings where only club officers and members are in attendance are not considered campus events.

It is requested that this be submitted at least two weeks before your event. Thank you for committing to sustainability in your event planning process!
