Beyond Certification
While sustainable tourism certification is a meaningful and powerful tool to help tourism businesses credibly measure and celebrate their sustainability performance with external verification, GreenStep Sustainable Tourism can lead to certification for those organizations that want it, while also going beyond certification, offering flexible approaches and support services to help tourism businesses to assess their sustainability performance, identify gaps, set goals and create action plans, even if certification isn’t a priority. We offer a range of options to best meet your needs.
Certification
If certification is your ultimate goal, let us know and we can discuss the steps, process and timelines involved. Please note that entering the certification process does not guarantee certification. A minimum standard of performance is required to achieve GreenStep Sustainable Tourism Certification.
You may want to first want to take the Free Sustainable Tourism Score or join the GreenStep Sustainable Tourism Membership Community. If you choose to continue with an assessment for certification, we will provide a credit towards the cost of your certification assessment.
