🎬 The Plot Thickens
The IFRS Foundation is making waves with its latest release of e-learning modules on the IFRS Sustainability Knowledge Hub. These modules are designed to help companies understand the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) Standards, specifically IFRS S1 and IFRS S2.
The four modules—covering everything from general sustainability-related disclosures to climate-related disclosures—include a mix of written and visual content, plus interactive knowledge checks. It's basically like Netflix, but for sustainability nerds!
🧠 Knowledge is Power
Each module ends with a short, multiple-choice assessment, giving users the chance to earn a certificate of completion. Whether you're a seasoned sustainability pro or a curious newbie, these modules offer foundational knowledge that's essential as companies gear up for the new disclosure requirements.
"The ISSB is committed to supporting companies as they implement our Standards," says Sue Lloyd, ISSB Vice-Chair. "We understand the need for accessible, practical resources to help preparers understand and apply IFRS S1 and IFRS S2."
🌍 Why This Matters
Sustainability isn't just a buzzword; it's becoming a critical component of financial reporting. With market demand for practical tools on the rise, the IFRS Foundation's e-learning modules are timely and crucial. They serve as an introductory resource for companies beginning their prep work on sustainability-related disclosures.
Members of professional accounting bodies can even earn CPD/CPE credits through these modules. And if you're really looking to level up, additional courses like the FSA Credential provide deeper dives into the intersection of sustainability and financial performance.
