As the scheme is evidence-based, the projects and contracts using CEEQUAL are rigorously self-assessed by a trained CEEQUAL Assessor – either within the project/contract team or externally contracted in.
Their role is to assess their project or contract across the wide-ranging environmental and social criteria within the Assessment Methodology. Click here for more information.
Assessors use the appropriate CEEQUAL Manual (either for Projects or Term Contracts) to score performance against questions relevant to the project or contract. Assessors collect evidence supporting their scores for each question in the Assessment. Upon project or contract completion, each Assessment is externally verified by a CEEQUAL-appointed Verifier. Once the Assessment score is ratified, the project or contract is awarded a percentage score and grade (Pass, Good, Very Good, or Excellent), and is then presented with a CEEQUAL Award certificate that demonstrates their level of achievement.

Professionals seeking to become CEEQUAL Assessors must successfully complete a two-day CEEQUAL Assessor training course before they can conduct a CEEQUAL Assessment.
