What are the benefits?

We’ll meet you where you are now environmentally - and we’ll help you go further.

We recognise that different organisations and sectors face different challenges and our criteria and framework are designed to work with any organisation at any point within their journey. Using our tools and templates, along with expert support and encouragement, we can help you to define your goals and put into practice the necessary steps to achieve them.

Each level builds upon the previous, to evolve your Environmental Management System (EMS), and provides a step-by-step framework to develop the skills and systems to go further. This carries a wide range of benefits on its own, but the benefit of the iiE process is continued sustainable development bespoke to your organisation as you progress from Bronze, through to Green and even beyond.

Hear what our members are saying about us:

iiE have provided us with invaluable support and guidance over the past 6 years. We are so grateful to them for sharing their ideas and enthusiasm to help us reduce our impact on the environment and save money, while at the same time having fun taking part in various events and activities. Thank you to all the team!

Hunt & Coombs Solicitors

It allows me to tailor the metrics and therefore the EMS to those aspects that are important and relevant to us – either due to environmental impact, or due to the engagement impact with staff…. Also important is the low administration burden.

Facilities Manager, Northampton General Hospital

It’s really gratifying when the work we as a Council have put in is recognised and we can demonstrate to others in the City the benefit of both monitoring and taking action of your environmental impact as well as the iiE approach to a management system as well.

Climate Change Manager, Hull City Council

We can all make a difference at a time when action on climate change is most needed. As we work towards iiE’s top level Green accreditation, we are keen to share our growing experience and knowledge on sustainability to help inspire and support other practices in any way we can.

E. West, Davies Veterinary Specialists

iiE’s thorough resources take you through the process step-by-step, making it accessible and achievable, and their friendly team has been extremely helpful in responding to our queries. Organisations need help to understand and take action on environmental issues, and iiE’s work provides a vital bridge to enable them to do so.

Sustainability Projects & Education Lead, Change Agents

A number of years on from the original vision, large savings have been realised by doing the right thing and sometimes the obvious. Investors in the Environment gave the college the focus and impetus to collect and quantify everything that was happening throughout the college community.
