We're so glad you're here!

Resource of Sustainable Events (RoSE) is a platform for event & hospitality professionals to expand their sustainability knowledge in their respective fields. Students will leave their courses educated on eco-friendly policies and empowered to enact them in their businesses. This platform will offer courses for caterers, florists, planners, anyone involved in events really!

RoSE will give successful students an identifiable certificate of completion, which is then searchable to potential clients on a U.S.-based directory at rosecertification.com.

Plus, for every course purchased, RoSE will plant a tree. Who doesn't love that?

The time to make sustainability a standard practice in event planning is now. Clients are prioritizing vendors that prioritize the planet.

Not a vendor, but looking for one?

We're glad you're here, too! Our free to use directory makes it simple to find vendors who's ethics you can proudly support.

Meet RoSE

Resource of Sustainable Events (RoSE) is thrilled to welcome you to the newest online community for event professionals. Follow along with our "creator", RoSE, as she navigates the world of sustainability.

Floral Design Concentration

Floral design is a celebration of some of the most beautiful gifts Mother Nature has to offer, but it often comes at a dangerous and damaging cost. Florists, planners who hire florists and those purchasing flowers will all benefit from learning about the pitfalls and opportunities within the industry.

Caterer Concentration

Coming Soon!

Food waste is a global concern, and with hospitality being responsible for nearly a third of it, it's imperative to learn about the ways we can mitigate this ongoing problem as an industry.

Planner Packs

As courses are added to the RoSE curriculum, they will be available in a discounted bundle. Students who complete the Planner Pack plan will receive a distinct RoSE Planner certification.

Check back in soon for more info!
