ASIC/AASB help prepare for sustainability reporting
ASIC and the Australian Accounting Standards Board will host a series of free in-person workshops to help companies prepare for the new mandatory sustainability reporting requirements. These joint workshops are designed to provide a practical starting point for small and mid-size companies at the beginning of their sustainability journey, especially those preparing to commence reporting on or after 1 July 2026.
This follows ASIC’s release of e-learning modules on the core concepts underpinning the sustainability reporting requirements, with the workshops complementing the e-learning modules and allowing participants the opportunity to network and share practical insights about the modules with peers at a similar stage in their transition to sustainability reporting.
Workshops will feature expert–led presentations, discussions and practical activities to help participants apply key concepts with confidence, including:
- the basics of climate science
- climate–related physical risks
- climate–related transition risks
- climate–related opportunities
Registration for the workshops have now closed, but you can access the free educational modules at any time. Links to the various educational modules are as follows:
- Module 1: Corporations Act and climate-related disclosure requirements
