Steps towards certification:
- Form a group and assign a manager, whether an individual or an entity
- Develop an Internal Control System (ICS) for group management
- Facilitate training to ensure compliance with RSPO Principles & Criteria
- Join RSPO as a member
- Once ready, the Group Manager can approach a Certification Body for auditing
For smallholders, certification can be a complicated exercise, requiring funding, training, and guidance. This is why the RSPO Smallholder Support Fund (RSSF) has been established to aid smallholders through the process.
