Courses and Training
I teach courses on the Global Reporting Initiative 2021 Standards, the CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project) Investor Climate Change and Supply Chain Survey, and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board Standards (SASB) Fundamentals of Sustainability Accounting (FSA) Level I Exam Curriculum. To deliver these certified and licensed courses, I work with ISOS Group, a leading international provider of services for managing sustainability. ISOS Group is a Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Global Training Partner, a CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project) Accredited Solutions Provider, and a Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Approved Education Provider. Please contact me through my contact page for further information.
In response to the continuing increase in sustainability reporting requirements, companies have requested more private training sessions from the ISOS Group. I will be involved with these training sessions. They can be tailored to suit your company’s needs and, of course, can cover the entire range of reporting frameworks.
The Global Reporting Initiative is an important foundation for sustainability reporting. Courses offered by The ISOS Group, include requirements that satisfy the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Professional Certification Program. ISOS Group offers all the courses needed to qualify for the GRI Professional Certification Program, along with continuing education unit (CEU) courses required for certification maintenance. The latter involves obtaining 4 CEU credits every year after passing the GRI Professional Certification Exam. Specific GRI course offerings are listed below.
