Why Work with an EcoVadis Approved Training Partner?
Hint: Because sustainability is only as strong as your supply chain.
Sustainability isn’t a checkbox—it’s a strategy. And in a world where ESG performance is under the spotlight, vague commitments and unstructured programs won’t cut it. Today, companies are being held accountable not only for their own operations, but for the ethics, environmental performance, and labour standards of their entire supply chain.
That’s where EcoVadis comes in.
EcoVadis is the global gold standard in supply chain sustainability ratings. With over 100,000 companies assessed, its methodology is rigorous, and trusted by the world’s largest procurement teams. But let’s be honest: just getting rated isn’t enough. Understanding the methodology, navigating the documentation, improving your score, and embedding that progress into your business model—that’s where the real value lies. And that’s why working with an EcoVadis Approved Training Partner isn’t just helpful—it’s a competitive advantage.
EcoVadis doesn’t approve just anyone. Training Partners are carefully selected experts who have completed a rigorous certification process via the EcoVadis Academy. They are equipped with deep knowledge of the EcoVadis methodology, sustainability regulations, reporting practices, and local ESG requirements. More importantly, they are trained to teach—to translate technical sustainability frameworks into meaningful actions for companies and suppliers. Approved Training Partners are authorized to help suppliers understand and complete the EcoVadis assessment correctly and efficiently; support companies in interpreting their EcoVadis scorecards and Corrective Action Plans; and advise buyers on how to use EcoVadis to strengthen supply chain due diligence and reduce ESG risk.
Too often, companies treat EcoVadis as a one-off compliance hurdle. They delegate the assessment to someone in procurement or sustainability, fill out the minimum paperwork, and hope for the best. Unsurprisingly, they score poorly—and more importantly, they miss the chance to leverage EcoVadis as a real driver of change. Others outsource the process to consultants who may improve a score but leave no internal capacity behind. This isn’t real progress. It’s performance theater. Working with an Approved Training Partner is different. It’s not about outsourcing the responsibility—it’s about building internal expertise and sustainable improvement.
