Strategic ESG: Creating Sustainable Value Professional Certificate Program
The demand for businesses to address Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues is growing—from investors, customers, employees—and beyond. No longer can these be relegated to the ‘sidelines.’
In Strategic ESG: Creating Sustainable Value, you will learn how to act on important (material) ESG issues in ways that deliver sustainable impact across the triple bottom line and deliver a return on investment for your organization.
This completely virtual, global program is offered by GreenBiz in partnership with WholeWorks. Designed for working professionals and leaders, this program hones essential skills to integrate sustainability into your areas of responsibility within your organization. The 6 week program requires approximately 6 hours of effort per week for a 36-hour learning experience.
- Learn strategy & techniques through online learning modules;
- Practice through a highly realistic business simulation alongside peers from around the world;
- Apply what you learn immediately—with expert coaching and peer review—to your company.

ESG Essentials: Learn & Apply
Learn the essentials of ESG and apply them to a project in your organization with expert coaching and peer support. In the ESG Essentials program, you get the same 4 modules as the Fundamentals program (see above), plus a 5th module that focuses on applying the principles to your organization. You will also develop a project charter with expert coaching and peer review. Complete the program in approximately 24 hours over 6 weeks and walk away with a solid business case for an important ESG initiative, as well as the essential elements identified to make it work in your organization.
A key component of this program is the hands-on experience of developing a ‘Sustainable Value Creation Map,’ for your organization, using WholeWorks’ novel mapping application. This enables you to ‘connect the dots’ between a material ESG issue (or opportunity), financial value for your firm, and a positive impact across the triple bottom line, environmentally, socially, and economically.
