Frequently asked questions

HOW DOES THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING COURSE DIFFER FROM GRI’S CERTIFIED TRAINING?

Paia’s training is delivered by individuals who have unparalleled depth of hands on expertise in reporting locally. GRI has changed their certification programme, such that participants can self learn through the GRI academy.  Paia’s training is focused on training participants how to do sustainability reports, from firsthand experience and is more pragmatic on how to go about reporting.  Our training focuses on GRI, but also covers SASB and Integrated Reporting, as we find most clients want a more holistic overview of reporting, beyond just GRI.
