“The training course from CSR-Accreditation has been a really rewarding experience, providing plenty of opportunities to reflect on my own work and strategy for CSR in the business. Muryel and Jennifer were able to break down each of the modules in to really engaging sessions, providing plenty of time for reflection, discussion and sharing of best practice. There was a real balance between providing background and theory along with practical steps and actions you can take regardless of your company size or sector. Whether you are just starting out on your CSR journey, or just need some reassurance you’re on the right track, I would not hesitate to recommend this course to both beginners and experienced professionals alike.”
