    About

    This course is offered part-time only, over one year, or two semesters.

    Now more than ever, business leaders need to consider a multitude of issues linked to 'sustainable development' when managing their organisation.

    As stakeholders increasingly demand greater accountability from organisations to address their environmental and social impacts, sustainability-related performance is now acknowledged as an integral aspect of business – with a failure to do so putting an organisation’s future at risk.

    The Graduate Certificate of Sustainable Business is designed to equip business professionals with the skills to address sustainability-related challenges in an increasingly socially and environmentally conscious business climate. Completing this course prepares you to enter or advance in the fields of socially responsible investment, business continuity, and governance and assurance.

    This course is composed from 4 units, with flexible learning options available.
