A brief description of how the employee educators are selected (1st program):

When signing up to be a Green Office, the office formally designates a representative to serve as the official liaison between their office and the Sustainable Post committee. The Green Office Representative is responsible for relaying any communications, updates, and resources to the rest of their office. They are also asked to serve as a sustainability resource for their office and any other neighboring offices.


A brief description of the formal training that the employee educators receive (1st program):

All Green Office Representatives are provided with a number of resources including recycling reference sheets, energy saving tips, and recycling bins if their office is not already equipped with them. After being walked through these resources and formally trained by student Environmental Educators, the Green Office Representatives are expected to adequately educate the rest of their office about the various sustainability initiatives taking place on the LIU Post campus. Green Office Representatives may also request a workshop to be performed by either the Sustainability Coordinator or an Environmental Educator depending upon availability.


A brief description of the staff and/or other financial support the institution provides to the program (1st program):

The Sustainable Post committee devotes a portion of its budget to the purchase of promotional items for Green Office participants such as reusable water bottles. The program is also jointly overseen by the Sustainability Coordinator and the Chair of the Sustainable Post committee.
