Q: How do I choose an ISO 14000 certification body?

A: We can't tell you which certification body to hire, but we can give you a few tips on finding one.

The Standards Council of Canada recommends that organizations that want to certify their environmental management system do so through an accredited certification body. Accreditation helps to ensure that your certification will be accepted by potential customers here in Canada and around the world. Consult our list of SCC accredited certification bodies.
