The Sustainable Industries Council (SIC) invites you to its “Appointment 2017” event under the theme “eco-responsibility opens up to a whole world”. A world of business opportunities. A world more mobilized than ever. A thriving world of international business opportunities.

Participate in this annual meeting of decision-makers from companies and organizations that make ECORESPONSIBILITY a true business solution opening up to the international market. Discover the 4 levels of the ECOESPONSABLETM CertificationTM and participate in a workshop with experienced experts on the subject. Several companies and organizations, including SCHOOLS already certified through the CID’s ÉCORESPONSABLETM Certification, will attend this half-day “Rendez-Vous 2017”.

An excellent opportunity to exchange and network!

The Québec business community is delighted with this long-awaited news. This is a perfect opportunity to highlight this progress, which positions us advantageously on the international scene in terms of managing sustainable development.

• What exactly is the status of the 4 levels of the ECOESPONSABLETM Certification? Presentation of the 4 specifications, accessibility criteria, validation and audit process, referentials and management tools.
• What are the main benefits and how can the 4 levels of certification translate into potential business opportunities?
• How have major Quebec clients benefited from their experience in the ÉCORESPONSABLETM Program? How do they intend to continue their eco-responsible development?
• What are the impacts of the 4 levels of ECORESPONSABLETM Certification on the value chain of suppliers and partners, particularly in the context of the new ISO standards for sustainable procurement and purchasing?
• How to evaluate the level of coherence of a company or organization in relation to the 4 levels of certification? A workshop will answer this question. Experienced experts will help you list the tools required to reach a particular level.

CID relies on strategic partnerships that promote international influence: ECOCERT, a world leader in private certification and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), whose CID is a “silver” partner for the translation of GRI standards into French.
