Open Course

Sustainability Basics course

Our training provides a comprehensive and practical view of the concepts, developments, regulatory environment, opportunities, challenges related to sustainability and the impact of all these for businesses.
In our Sustainability Basics course, participants acquire practical knowledge in addition to theories

Our intensive training course provides a comprehensive and practical overview of sustainability-related concepts, developments, the regulatory environment, opportunities, challenges and their impact on economic actors. Participants will also receive concrete advice and consultation on how their delegating organisation should respond to all these aspects through the tasks integrated into the training. The development process has been designed to complement the theoretical elements with elements that allow for immediate practical application, as our aim is not just to keep the participants “well-informed” but to bring about specific changes in the environmental impact of the organisations that delegate participants. Through our training course, we provide not only knowledge but also support in order to achieve a positive environmental impact.

In our training course, we cover popular sustainability management topics such as LCA, ESG, or the pitfalls of greenwashing
