Course Overview

With over 90% of the world's largest companies now publishing corporate responsibility (CR) and sustainability reports, reporting is now a well-established hallmark of what it means to be a respected company in the 21st century. Nonetheless, compared to financial reporting, sustainability reporting is still a young and rapidly evolving practice with practitioners constantly seeking for best ways to make reporting really count.

This three-day course will take a hands-on approach to guiding participants through the 'whys and hows' of reporting. It will approach the topic both, from strategic, and practical perspectives, and build participants' confidence to advance their reporting journeys in a way that adds real value to all concerned.

The course also provides an overview of key reporting standards, such as Global Reporting Initiative, IIRC and AA1000, helping participants to appreciate their similarities and differences and choose the one that best suits their organisation. The course will also cover the emerging regional initiatives and governmental drivers for reporting.
