Our Motto
Our motto is to provide a pathway to organizational project management and sustainability maturity
We believe that for organizations to create sustained transformational change and to achieve environmental and sustainability objectives, project management & sustainability knowledge & skills are critical to success.
Our Vision
To help protect, conserve and enhance our natural world and help create a sustainable way of life for present and future generations by providing training and professional services to practitioners leading environmental, climate change adaption, renewable energy and sustainability initiatives.
Our Mission
Our mission is two-fold. First, through our effective project management and sustainability training and consulting services, we strive to support organizations in creating sustained transformational change in order to achieve their environmental and sustainability objectives. Second, we work to facilitate the sharing of project information, resources and knowledge by providing access to a robust portal for our clients
About our Organization

From this perspective, our efforts focus on providing training and professional services that build the knowledge, skills and competencies of Project Managers & Team members faced with the challenges of balancing environmental, societal and economic needs

Through formal endorsement of the Earth Charter, we are proud of our commitment to its principles and values for a just, sustainable and peaceful world
Giving Back to the Environment through Partnerships
Over the course of our day-to-day operations we rely heavily on printed materials to successfully service the needs of our clients. From the many reports we are commissioned to provide our clients and the many training notebooks and handouts we produce for our workshops year round, we inevitably use a large volume of paper, which has a negative effect on our environment. Thus, to offset our environmental footprint, we are proud to partner with the South Nation Conservation Authority and the Grenville Land Stewardship Council in their annual tree planting programs. These programs are focused on restoring riparian zones along lakes, streams and riverbanks throughout the South Nation watershed located in eastern Ontario.
