Sustainability for directors, supervisors and policymakers
Inhouse training
Sustainability is a recurring theme in the boardroom and among supervisory directors. European legislation obliges companies to work with sustainability and the new Corporate Governance Code mentions long-term value creation as the most important addition. In your administrative role, you should not only be aware of what is coming your way. Your vision on the long-term sustainable strategy is indispensable for the survival of the organisation. ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) should be reflected in the entire organisation these days, from strategy formation to reviewing the annual accounts, from the culture and mindset of the organisation to risk management and risk analyses. That requires something from you.
To support you, we offer a training program for you and your team. The program contributes to being compliant with new legislation such as CSRD and the new administrative requirements of the Corporate Governance Code. It helps you in your managerial role from strategy to compliance. During the program we make the individual translation to your organisation and situation.

We start with a session about the various ESG developments so that you are aware of the playing field. With this session, together with the e-learnings to be completed, you have a solid basic knowledge of ESG. We elaborate on this in two 'deep dive' sessions on ESG strategy and ESG transformation.
Duration: 2 hours
You will receive access to our learning platform. You will follow a number of e-learnings in your own time:
- what is ESG?
- stakeholder expectations
- CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive)
Duration: 1.5 hours
In the strategy session, we zoom in on the impact of regulations on strategy, business operations and reporting. Regulation such as NFRD/CSRD, the renewed Corporate Governance Code, EU Taxonomy and SFRD. Together we explore how this is converted into an ESG strategy with concrete goals and actions for your organisation.
Duration: 2 hours
In the deep dive about ESG transformation, we get started with the step from strategy ambition / strategy intention to reporting reality. This gives you an idea of where your organisation stands and what is needed for the transformation from the strategy wish to reporting reality.
Duration: 2 hours
