TOP REVIEWS FROM ESG RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Excellent course to understand the basics, very engaging sessions that are explained in an easy to understand format.
I thought this was one of the best ESG related courses I have taken. The course was recent, relevant and very interesting. Great material and case examples. I think a very balanced view was presented.
Great high level course. Deeper dive into the methods, math, and tools would have been nice. Enjoyed the case studies.
Good introduction and choice of topics, but mediocre slides, a few mistakes in both tests and lectures, and absent moderators.
