Marion  has developed and teaches the first green cleaning training program for cleaning service providers that is recognized by the Green Seal organization. Completion of the training program provides commercial and institutional cleaning services with the ability to achieve GS 42 certification.

Ms. Stecklow has developed programs and initiatives that are designed to support building owners, schools, and universities with achieving LEED certification and “Green” initiatives.  Marion’s current primary objectives are to elevate the profession of cleaning as a respected and recognized component of promoting public health. This can be achieved through her new certification program for individual cleaning personnel: Certified Eco-Building Hygienist™. This education and hands-on training program will help to promote and maintain healthy indoor environments through better cleaning and building maintenance that focuses on the health of the building’s occupants and the people who provide those services.
