Join us for a webinar with our assurance partner Sustainability Assurance Services (SAS) on Nov. 13 at noon ET!
As the demand for transparency and accountability in sustainability reporting grows, understanding the role and scope of assurance becomes crucial.
Joshua Knupp, MBA, MID, SEA, of 3R and Gina MacIlwraith, MBA, SEP, of Sustainability Assurance Services (SAS) will dive into the often-overlooked value that assurance can provide, extending beyond greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to cover a broader spectrum of sustainability metrics.
Whether you’re new to the concept or looking to deepen your knowledge, this session will offer valuable insights into how assurance can enhance the credibility of your sustainability program.
Key Takeaways:
- Gain a basic understanding of key definitions, concepts, and how to begin incorporating assurance into your sustainability strategy.
- Discover how assessments like EcoVadis value assurance by incorporating multiple assurance questions across various sustainability metrics.
- Learn why it’s vital for your verification partner to have a deep understanding of sustainability metrics, terms, and processes, ensuring your assurance engagement is both accurate and meaningful.
