Who is this program for?
This program is aimed at professionals from any sector seeking to update their profile, redirect their career, enhance their employability, or acquire a strategic approach to sustainability.
How do the two pillars (Upskilling + Professional Coaching) work?
The program is built on two pillars to maximize learning:
Training: Includes up-to-date content, live sessions, and practical resources to acquire current knowledge, tools, and trends related to environmental, social, and corporate sustainability.
Professional Coaching: An optional group support space to deepen self-awareness, define your impact goals, and develop strategies to enhance your profile and professional transition.

Additionally, if you are seeking mentoring in other topics or specialties, as a participant of the Sustainability Accelerator you have one individual session included, choosing an expert from our mentor directory.
