The contours of corporate sustainability disclosure are constantly expanding, with companies using a variety of ESG metrics and frameworks to tell their sustainability story. This can make it challenging to keep up and focus on the right metrics to judge company performance.

The G&A team can quickly bring employees up-to-speed on social sustainability issues, including reporting frameworks and metrics. We offer coaching, small group training and workshops.

The training course is structured around a core training with additional modular training courses on specific topics.

This core training is meant to lay a foundation for understanding social topics and interpreting relevant data.

It will also show how and why social topics are central to ESG considerations and disclosure. Participants should come away understanding the role of social issues in a company’s strategy and performance.

The course will also cover the key ESG data providers and other sources of ESG data beyond company sustainability disclosure to use when evaluating a company. This will teach participants how to gather and interpret a wide variety of sustainability data.
