CSRD Compliance: ESG & CSR Reporting Essentials

This course is designed for finance professionals who will play a central role in CSRD compliance and sustainability reporting under ESRS. You will learn the CSRD scope and timeline, reporting architecture, and the finance implications of double materiality, value chain data, and assurance requirements.

The course focuses on integrating sustainability reporting into existing financial reporting cycles—covering governance, internal controls, data quality, documentation, and KPI definitions. By the end, you will understand how to set up finance-led processes that produce consistent, comparable, and audit-ready CSRD disclosures, and how to coordinate effectively with sustainability, risk, and operations teams.
