Certification · Effective 5 June 2026

An update to the GPM-b™ certification is coming

The globally recognized Green Project Manager – Basic™ (GPM-b™) certification is evolving into the Certified Sustainable Project Professional (CSPP)™ certification, effective 5 June 2026.

Built for today’s project landscape, the CSPP™ certification equips you to embed sustainability across every stage of the project lifecycle—shifting from purpose-led participation to business value-led capability, and helping you deliver projects that reduce risk, improve efficiency and achieve measurable value for people, planet and prosperity.

Current GPM-b™ certification holders will be eligible for a no-cost upgrade.
Applicants may take the current GPM-b™ exam through 31 December 2026.

Our Mission & Vision.

What makes us different?

Sustainability Meets Project Management Excellence

At GPM, we bridge the gap between sustainability and project management, delivering innovative solutions that drive environmental, social, and economic impact without compromising project success.

Tailored Consulting Solutions with a Personal Touch

Our boutique, white-glove approach ensures that every solution is crafted to meet your unique needs, with hands-on support from start to finish. We don’t offer cookie-cutter services—we offer custom-fit solutions that deliver results.

Your Trusted Partner in Driving Impact

At GPM, we bring together sustainability leadership, project delivery expertise, and a people-centered mindset to help organizations drive meaningful, lasting impact. We’re not just supporting the shift to a more sustainable world — we’re helping lead it, one project at a time.

Our approach is deliberately boutique and proudly hands-on. In an era of automation and one-size-fits-all solutions, we offer something rare: tailored support, real relationships, and white-glove service that puts your goals first. Every engagement is shaped around your organization’s unique context — no templates, no shortcuts.

We don’t believe tackling the world’s biggest challenges means losing sight of creativity, collaboration, or even a little fun. When you work with GPM, you get more than a provider — you gain a true partner. One who brings deep knowledge, fresh thinking, and a human touch to every step of the journey.
