COVID-19 UPDATE
Thanks for your interest in the ASCP's Green Office Program! Due to staffing shortages in Fall 2021, we will not be formally resuming the Green Office Program until 2022. However, we encourage you to start pursuing initiatives to green your office! The Green Office webpage has lots of good resources to help you track your progress toward certification and to support you in greening your office. We will probably be able to accommodate office waste sorting trainings in Fall 2021. If you're interested, please email scp_contact@ahec.edu to request a training.
A GREENER OFFICE
The ASCP is spearheading a certification program for interdepartmental offices on Auraria Campus. Ranked on points, departmental offices and their green "offices leaders" initiate sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives into campus office environments. The goal is to inspire behavior changes and reduce campus-wide waste and carbon emissions through ecologically-minded sourcing practices, compost & recycling efforts, and reducing electricity usage.
CERTIFICATION LEVELS

The Bronze level certification is designed to be an easy way to introduce offices to sustainability. Once your baseline sustainability efforts have been recorded, efforts enacted, and the ASCP representative approves your office, you can move on to more advanced levels of sustainable actions!
*The Silver, Gold, and Platinum levels of the Green Office Program are a continuation of the program; more detailed and advanced for those offices who want to make a larger impact. Sample checklist items include ordering in bulk or using sustainable cleaning supplies.
