Sydney Executive Plus, in partnership with HSBC Australia, has launched Australia’s first Net Zero sprint that will support Australian corporates as they prepare for upcoming mandatory sustainability reporting.
Led by the Federal government, the climate-related financial disclosure regime will initially apply to the largest Australian corporates (revenue of over A$500m) for the reporting period commencing 1 January 2025. By 1 July 2027 it will be expanded to include corporates with a revenue of over A$50m, bringing Australia in line with International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) global reporting standards.
The Net Zero sprint is the only course of its kind in Australia to offer an immersive micro-credential that aims to equip senior executives and organisational leaders with the knowledge and tools to prepare for the mandatory reporting deadline, and to assist in delivering on climate commitments.
"The climate crisis demands an unprecedented, collaborative response, and we are proud to deliver innovative educational solutions that support leaders to drive meaningful change," said Associate Professor Sandra Peter, Co-Director of Sydney Executive Plus.
"Our vision is to combine academic expertise with leading industry insight to deliver cutting-edge learning on the big issues of our time."
