The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) has launched the second cohort of its Corporate Sustainability Leadership Programme, a three-month hybrid certification focused on ESG, AI, and carbon markets. The program aims to equip professionals with skills in ESG reporting, carbon finance, AI-driven sustainability, and leadership, with partners including NISE and Firstpost. Key topics include greenhouse gas accounting, net-zero strategies, carbon finance mechanisms, and AI-enabled sustainability solutions. The program responds to growing demand for practical ESG learning as frameworks like GRI and CBAM make sustainability a business necessity rather than just compliance.

TERI running a second cohort of this ESG program. Three months, hybrid, covers carbon markets and AI. Seems like a practical move given CBAM pressure on Indian exports.

Yeah, the CBAM angle is real. Indian companies exporting to Europe will need people who actually understand carbon accounting and reporting. This kind of training might help.

Worth noting NISE is a partner. That ties solar deployment knowledge into the ESG piece. If they teach how solar directly improves carbon metrics, that's useful.

First cohort feedback seemed positive based on the article. But these programs are only as good as the curriculum. Hope they focus on actual carbon market mechanics, not just theory.

The real test is whether graduates can navigate India's compliance market and the voluntary carbon market. If the program covers both, it could fill a real skills gap.
