September 7th 2017: Alison free online course - Diploma in Sustainable Business

The free online course Diploma in Sustainable Business provides a broad overview of the core concepts of sustainability in business operations. It highlights some of the benefits, opportunities and challenges associated with sustainable business practices. It also discusses many real-world business examples of sustainability in action.

This course will demonstrate how the implementation of more sustainable business models can allow a company to produce goods and services using fewer resources and at a lower cost. In addition, engaging in more sustainable business practices can also positively impact on a company’s brand and reputation.

This course will focus on how to use the Triple Bottom Line framework which measures a company's degree of social responsibility, its economic value, and its environmental impact. Many organisations have adopted the Triple Bottom Line framework to evaluate their performance in a broader perspective to create greater business value.

This free Diploma in Sustainable Business will be of great interest to business professionals, marketers, and eco-entrepreneurs who would like to know what is involved in running a sustainable business and how this can benefit the economy, society, and the environment.

Eric Corbett, Head of Content at Alison said, “In today’s modern competitive business world, sustainable business practices should be an integral part of a company’s overall management strategy. This course is ideal for those who wish to develop and implement a sustainable business model.”
