Progress on greening procurement: Procurement training
As outlined in the Greening Government Strategy, the Government of Canada (GC) is committed to lessening the impacts on the environment caused by government procurement of goods and services. As a part of efforts to green procurement, the Canada School of Public Service launched a course for procurement officers on Green Procurement (COR405), which covers the Policy on Green Procurement and how to apply its principles during the procurement process.
