Navigating the New Norm

With the CSRD set to reshape how companies report on sustainability, the directive’s implementation affects a wide range of businesses and sectors within the EU and beyond. This CSRD training provides a thorough understanding of the directive’s expanded framework and practical steps for compliance.

“Firms should invest in training their teams on sustainability issues and reporting requirements while engaging with stakeholders to understand their expectations and concerns. Taking these steps means not just complying with emerging regulations, but demonstrating a commitment to sustainable development and ultimately gaining a competitive edge.”
