About the CSRD Institute

Established in 2024, the CSRD Institute is a private training provider dedicated to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive.

Our Story

In May 2024, we launched the CSRD Institute in response to a need for education and training on the recently introduced Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

With our combined professional backgrounds in business, accounting, and finance, we recognised the evolving reporting landscape and the significance of sustainability as a key catalyst for change.

We quickly realised that our expertise in eLearning and instructional design together with our business acumen ensured we were well positioned to develop high-quality educational resources on the CSRD that could help support and empower individuals and businesses.

We are dedicated to providing an enriching learning experience that not only instils confidence in the implementation of sustainable initiatives, but also catalyses positive change within organisations and communities worldwide.

Thank you for joining us on the journey towards a greener future!
