ISO 20121 is the international standard for sustainable events management. It outlines how to deliver quality events that maximize their contribution to sustainable development. ISO 20121 can be used by anyone involved in all types of events, throughout the event management cycle. And now you can implement your own sustainable events management system to maximize return on investment, reduce resource intensity and satisfy your sponsors, clients and attendees.

The standard is designed for organizations of all sizes and can be applied to venues, contractors and organizers. This course follows our introductory training and shows you how to implement an ISO 20121 management system. We’ll help you interpret requirements so you can apply them to your business. And we’ll show you how to use the ISO 20121 tools and techniques every day.

ISO 20121 will not only help improve the sustainability of your event, it may also improve your financial performance.
The standard outlines ways to achieve greater efficiency across the full spectrum of event management, helping you to improve resource management and streamline your delivery.
You will identify where you can reduce waste, create stakeholder win/wins and identify the full range of value to be derived from the event – in maximizing your event’s contribution to sustainable development and your positive reputation.
