ESG reporting remains fragmented, reactive, and technically siloed, limiting strategic impact.

The situation this course is for

Even sophisticated ESG reports often fail to meet the dual demands of regulatory rigor and executive clarity. Data is pulled from disparate sources, visualizations lack auditability, and models are difficult to scale. The result: teams spend more time reconciling than analyzing, and insights arrive too late to shape strategy.

Who this is for

Business and technology professionals responsible for ESG data architecture, reporting, and governance in financial services and data-driven enterprises.

Who this is not for

This course is not for beginners in Power BI or those seeking high-level overviews of ESG concepts.

What you walk away with

  • Design ESG reporting frameworks that meet evolving compliance and investor-grade standards
  • Architect scalable Power BI models with traceable data lineages for ESG metrics
  • Integrate alternative data sources including unstructured ESG disclosures and third-party scores
  • Build dynamic dashboards that support scenario modeling and forward-looking ESG assessments
  • Deploy governance controls and versioning for audit-ready ESG reporting pipelines
