Zero Waste Ambassador and Trainer Certificate

We have developed the  Zero Waste Ambassador and Trainer Certificate to promote and give credibility to verified zero waste experts and trainers in Europe.

Why get the Ambassador and/or Trainer Certificate?

  • Upgrade your professional portfolio in the growing field of circular economy
  • Assure your city and/or clients that you have the most up-to-date qualifications in the field of zero waste and the teaching of it.

In order to get qualified with the Ambassador or Trainer Certificates, you’ll need to follow these steps:

  • Attend one of our open Ambassador/Trainer trainings, which we organise with partners at least once a year
  • Submit the required analysis task, based on your zero waste or training work (the form with specific questions will be given by our assessors)
  • Attend an interview with 2 of our assessors

In case you are not able to attend our training, or believe you already have the needed qualifications, it’s also possible to apply for the certificate with these additional tasks:

  • For the Ambassador Certificate – an additional work plan for your zero waste advocacy work and a specific zero waste related task given by the assessor.
  • For the Trainer Certificate – the assessor(s) will have to have the possibility to observe one of the applicant’s teaching sessions.

The Certificate is valid for 3 years, after which the Diploma holder can go through a renewal process to extend their Certificate for another 3 years.

There are small fees required to cover the costs of both attending the training and receiving the Certificate. Discounts are provided to individuals from Zero Waste Europe member organisations.

If you are interested in getting certified, contact us at [email protected]

The Zero Waste Ambassador and Trainer Certificates were developed in collaboration with Zero Waste Estonia, Ekologi brez meja, Tallinn University and Estonian University of Life Sciences with funding received from Erasmus+ programme.
