Case Study: Dawson College achieves Gold STARS certification and streamlined carbon reporting with Ecometrica

Dawson College - Customer Case Study

Dawson College, a Montréal post‑secondary institution of roughly 10,000 students, needed to advance its long‑standing sustainability program — pursuing Carbon Neutral Certification, consolidating Scope 1–3 emissions reporting, replacing manual spreadsheets, and incorporating historical energy and waste data back to 2008. They engaged Ecometrica and its award‑winning, user‑friendly platform and analyst services to streamline GHG accounting, reporting, and data collection.

Ecometrica implemented its platform, provided analyst support, data quality assurance, GHG‑Protocol‑aligned year‑over‑year reporting, and simplified third‑party verification, enabling real‑time consumption and emissions reporting, reduced effort in report generation, and full transparency. As a result Dawson College integrated historical data, improved analytics and efficiency, and in 2020 achieved AASHE STARS Gold — the first cégep in Québec — a measurable recognition of its enhanced sustainability performance.
