Why take CSRD training?
The non-financial reporting framework is being significantly strengthened, particularly under the impetus of the European Union. From 2024 onwards, many companies will be subject to the reporting obligations set out in the CSRD, and will have to apply European reporting standards (ESRS).
This training course is aimed at financial and operational managers who wish to understand the challenges and expectations of this major change in standards, and contribute to improving the quality of non-financial information.
