The course took away my ominous feeling about CSRD being this big insurmountable task - it feels manageable now.
A wide array of content packed into a 9-week course, a must-have for CSRD practitioners! The course allowed me to dive deeper into the mystical world of the new directive and what it actually means, now it feels way easier to approach - thanks to LFCA!
