Overview

Green Standards are an essential part of building the Green Team. Your team will define and communicate the standards of the Green traits so everyone is on the same page. The Green Standards will be the reference point for all the Green Awards (Verifications & MVG).

"The biggest thing about Green Standards was it gave us a CLEAR understanding of how we needed to show up."
