While the term ESG is widely used, it is often poorly understood and executed.
With growing stakeholder expectations, regulatory requirements, and the potential impact on organisational reputation and performance, there is an increasing and critical need for organisations to embrace ESG principles.
Skills Lab has partnered with Manufacturing Skills Queensland to deliver fee-free access to the Manufacturing sector for this industry-driven course.
Skills Lab’s ESG Micro-credential helps organisations build the skills necessary to drive practical and meaningful change.
This micro-credential equips participants with an understanding of ESG principles and strategies, enabling them to effectively integrate environmental, social, and governance considerations into their organisation(s). The course enables participants to integrate ESG to deliver practical and meaningful change, responding proactively to ‘Net Zero’ requirements within a sustainable business context.
