Classic Program
Owners and managers of properties with existing land uses have expressed interest in joining a program of similar rigor to the Signature Program for new developments. These properties include ones being redeveloped or going through restoration for improvement, while maintaining the same use. The Classic Program is based upon Audubon International’s experience working with multiple property types and also takes into account that some properties have been developed for certain uses and might be constrained by the prior development.

Signature
The Signature Program provides comprehensive environmental planning assistance to new developments. The program helps landowners and developers design for the environment so that both economic and environmental objectives are achieved. Once construction is complete, involvement in the Signature Program ensures that managers apply sustainable resource management practices in the long-term stewardship of the property.

Green Lodging
The Green Lodging Program provides the assurance that audited lodging facilities have met environmental best practice standards. The program began in 1998 to meet the lodging industry's desire to provide quality guest services, while minimizing their impact on the environment. Through a comprehensive and credible method for assessing the extent of the environmental measures undertaken, participating facilities can reduce environmentally-related costs and gain a marketing advantage.
