Target audience

Company representatives and individuals in administrations, associations, foundations, and non-governmental or non-profit organizations who want to act as competent CR points of contact.

Objectives

Sustainability and CR encompass a range of tasks within a company. Selected functions such as procurement, communication, employee management, compliance, and product development are involved, but often require higher-level coordination or a specialist unit.

To fulfill these tasks competently, specific skills are required. These include:

  • Development of CR strategies for companies

  • Introduction and application of CR management approaches

  • Integration of CR into corporate functions such as procurement, employee management, accounting, and controlling & reporting

  • Credible CR communication to the market and the public

  • Development of a corporate culture towards sustainability and initiation of change processes

  • Planning and implementation of CR projects with internal and external partners

  • Review and evaluation of companies concerning sustainability

In addition to these skills, the program conveys a comprehensive understanding of CR as an integrated, strategic, and systematic approach that simultaneously offers benefits for the company and society as a whole ("shared value").

The program is also an ideal preparation for individuals who want to act as competent CR contacts in administrations, associations, foundations, and non-governmental or non-profit organizations.
