Permitted exam materials and equipment
Dette kurset vil gi deg en særlig kompetanse innen bærekraftrapportering. Det inkluderer kunnskaper om relevante begreper (samfunnsansvar, bærekraft mv.), rapporteringspraksis, lovkrav, rapporteringsstandarder. I årene som kommer vil mange bransjer formes av en rekke nye reguleringer som samlet sett vil forme virksomheters markedsutsikter i betydelig grad, inkludert reguleringer knyttet til avfall, utslipp, miljømessige og sosiale forhold internt i virksomhetene, og ikke i minst i verdikjedene. Det blir økt fokus på styring (governance), etikk og bedrifters samfunnsansvar. Til sammen omtalt som ESG rapportering (enviroment - social - governance). Vi går fra frivillig bærekraftrapportering etter standarder fra ulike initiativer, til pålagt rapportering etter et felles rapporteringsstandarder og rapporteringsspråk. Kurset fokuserer hovedsakelig på kommende krav, men vil trekke linjene tilbake for å se på utviklingen.
