Projet d'apprentissage appliqué
Through the specialisation, you will complete parts of a capstone project in each course. The capstone tasks across the three courses follow a fictional organisation's (GreenBank) journey to become a more sustainable financial institution, first conducting foundational stakeholder and ESG analysis (Course 1), then developing basic communication and reporting approaches (Course 2), and finally recommending suitable sustainable finance products (Course 3). Through these interconnected but standalone assessments, you will apply concepts from each course to help GreenBank address the authentic challenge of integrating sustainability into its operations and product offerings in a way that meets stakeholder expectations.
