Swedish term

diplomerad

Swedish to English Tech/Engineering Business/Commerce (general) IT industry document
Hello

I've never seen "diplomerad" used in this way before in comparison to "certifierad"

Vi har varit ***diplomerade*** inom miljö och kvalitet en längre tid och tog förra året steget upp till en ISO-certifiering för informationssäkerhet.

My searches are polluted by "diploma in environmental science" etc.

What does this mean? Does it mean that the employees have relevant diplomas in environmental studies and quality control or is it the company that is "diplomerad". If so, how would we say this in English?

Thanks

Environmentally certified as per Svensk miljöbas

"Företag och förvaltningar kan miljöcertifieras enligt olika metoder. Idag finns två etablerade certifieringar som möter upphandlingskrav på oberoende granskning.
En av dessa metoder är miljödiplomering enligt Svensk miljöbas, en annan är ISO-certifiering inom miljö (ISO 14001)."

"Miljödiplomering är mer lämpad för mindre verksamheter på ett lokalt/regionalt plan. Miljödiplomering kan vara ett första steg till certifiering enligt ISO 14001."

"An environmental certificate offered within Sweden is an EMS that is in accordance with the Swedish Environmental Base (sv: Svenska Miljöbas).
This certificate is called an Environmental Diploma (sv: Miljödiplom) and is a recognised environmental certificate within the Swedish business market.
In contrast to the ISO 14001, the Environmental Diploma is directed towards smaller sized companies.
The Environmental Diploma is based on the basic requirements of ISO 14001 and for some is seen as a first step for small businesses who have the aim of eventually being certified with a more internationally recognised standard, such as the ISO 14001."

The Swedish term seems to suggest a concern that the standard should not be seen as equal to ISO, or competing with it. You could address that by modifying my term to something like: "Environmentally certified per a national scheme geared towards small (and medium-sized) businesses".
Peer comment(s):

agree Christopher Schröder : But I would probably just refer to it as “a national scheme”

Thanks, Chris! Some fine-tuning like that makes sense.
