Certification
At the end of the ESG Course Programme, participants receive the ESG Specialist Diploma, which is both a benefit for the employees and a future strategy for the company.
IMPORTANT: Even companies that are not required to report on sustainability, but are in the value chain of a company that is, will be involved in the reporting process by providing relevant information.
How to Report?
Sustainability Reporting must be carried out in accordance with ESRS Standards (European Sustainability Reporting Standards).
These are the set of Technical Standards developed by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) to support the implementation of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
The ESRS emphasise transparency, accountability and comparability, and provide a clear framework through which companies can document their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) impact.
Even if each company has its own specificities, the main steps for developing the strategy, policies and ultimately the sustainability report are the same for any business.
There are currently 12 ESRS Standards:
- Two transversal standards (ESRS1 and ESRS2): for general topics containing basic principles.
- Ten specific standards centred on the themes of: Environment (ESRS E1-E5), Social (ESRS S1-S4) and Governance (ESRS G1).
