Our five-day public Corporate Responsibility training, in partnership with Two Tomorrows is for managers, academics, consultants and auditors seeking a solid grounding in corporate responsibility, and those seeking to move into the CR field. It is the first public CR training in the world to be certified by the International Register of Certificated Auditors (IRCA) to its latest training criteria. Our first successful programme took place in Singapore in May 2010 with 9 participants successfully completing the course and gaining eligibility to join IRCA.
