Overview
Sustainability and climate risk are probably two of most important concerns, high on the agenda of any organization trying to navigate the complex business environment for longer term success. No company, big or small, can ignore the challenges they pose and will have to address the issues head-on if they want to remain relevant, competitive and ahead of the game. It is with this in mind that the Iclif Executive Education Center is offering a program to prepare individuals for the Sustainability and Climate Risk (SCR) Certificate exam, offered by the Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP) to business professionals, government and non-profit professionals, career changers and students who want to stand out in the job marketplace.
GARP’s Sustainability and Climate Risk (SCR) Certificate program is designed for business executives navigating the field of sustainability and climate risk. The SCR curriculum, developed by world-leading senior risk practitioners, climate experts and sustainability professionals, provides a holistic overview of the assessment and management of climate risks, as well as related financial risks that are associated with regulatory initiatives, reporting requirements and green finance instruments. To be awarded the SCR certificate, participants will have to undertake a self-study program and pass a 4-hour multiple-choice exam comprising 90 questions including two case studies covering the syllabus. Exams are offered via computer-based testing (CBT) at Pearson VUE test center in Malaysia. The next exam date window is between October 18 – November 1, 2025. The exact exam date will be assigned to participants on a first-come-first-served basis.
