Standard Partnerships

12-month Sustainability Management Framework license, including a Self-assessment tool, for accommodations, attractions tour operators, and transportation service providers. This online educational tool helps you develop measurement and management strategies for determining your company’s impacts on the people, place, and economy where you do business. Better yet, the program doubles as an application for companies wanting to become Eco-certified through STEP.

Please note that enrollment in the Partner Program does not include Eco-certification. Tourism businesses interested in being Eco-certified must at a minimum complete Step 2 and Step 3.

The Eco-certification process is designed to assist travel providers in mitigating their negative environmental, economic, and socio-cultural impacts and maximizing the benefits they provide to the environment, local and indigenous people and their communities.

1/2 hour consultation on pursuing Eco-certification or setting up a Giving Back program (corporate philanthropy or carbon footprinting/management focus) – Learn how to attract financial support for sustainable development-oriented projects that that are located in the destinations you serve or let us help you determine your carbon footprint.

Free i-Frame Carbon Calculator (see an example here) – encourage your guests to offset the carbon associated with their travel.
