Marketing and PR guidelines for the WELL Enterprise Provider (WELL EP) Designation

Share the exciting news about becoming a WELL EP and follow the below guidelines to promote your new organization-level designation with your communities.

Congratulations! Your organization has earned the WELL EP designation, joining a new leadership community delivering a comprehensive suite of WELL solutions at a portfolio or enterprise scale. WELL EPs play a critical role in accelerating a global culture of health.

Share the news and follow the below guidelines to promote your new designation with your clients and stakeholders. Here are some ideas to help you get started:

WELL EPs:

  • Are WELL champions at scale.
    WELL EPs integrate WELL offerings into their client services to advance health and well-being at scale.
  • Have institutional expertise in the WELL Building Standard (WELL) and related offerings.
    WELL EPs guide their clients to identify and implement WELL strategies, helping companies meet their larger business objectives in areas such as ESG reporting, human and social capital management, and workplace strategy and policy. WELL EPs offer their demonstrated expertise in WELL along with tailored resources to support the growing demand for enhanced health and well-being for employees, customers and communities.
  • Deploy WELL Accredited Professionals (WELL APs) who can implement WELL strategies that create stronger organizations and people-first places.

WELL EPs are IWBI keystone members. While WELL EPs may use their designation to indicate their capability to deliver WELL solutions at enterprise scale, they can not speak or purport to speak on behalf of IWBI or authorize use by any third party of any IWBI intellectual property. Only IWBI may authorize the use of IWBI names, trademarks, logos or certification marks. Misuse of intellectual property is intellectual property infringement and breach of the agreement with IWBI.

MARKETING YOUR WELL EP DESIGNATION
IWBI encourages WELL EPs to showcase their commitment to advancing health and well-being at scale across the globe in the following ways:

  • Announce your WELL EP designation to the media. A template press release with approved language is available for download.

  • Be social. There’s an active IWBI community on social media! Promote your achievements and join IWBI’s conversation on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, and be sure to tweet @WELLcertified.
