Makati, July 18, 2025 — With sustainability becoming a defining priority for businesses globally, ECC International (ECCI), through its learning arm APEX Global, recently concluded a two-day in-person learning program focused on equipping professionals with the knowledge and capabilities to advance their organizations’ sustainability agendas.
Participants came from a wide range of industries—including Construction & Real Estate, Banking & Finance, Accounting & Professional Services, Conglomerates, and Telecommunications—underscoring the shared urgency to integrate sustainability into core operations. This cross-industry mix created a dynamic environment for exchanging real-world insights on emerging challenges and solutions, from stakeholder engagement to risk and performance alignment.
The program emphasized practical applications of leading frameworks and standards, helping participants deepen their understanding of materiality, ESG data management, governance mechanisms, and effective disclosure practices. Interactive modules and peer discussions encouraged participants to define actionable next steps tailored to their specific organizational contexts.
This initiative is part of ECCI’s Sustainability Skills Series—a curated portfolio of learning experiences designed to build internal capabilities in areas such as ESG integration, climate risk management, and responsible business strategy. Whether organizations are just beginning their sustainability journey or aiming to enhance existing practices, the series offers structured, expert-led sessions that reflect evolving regulations, investor expectations, and stakeholder demands.
While a shared platform for diverse sectors introduces varying starting points and perspectives, it also enables a broader understanding of how sustainability challenges manifest across industries—fostering collaboration, adaptability, and innovation.
As sustainability continues to shape business outcomes—from regulatory compliance to market competitiveness—ECCI encourages organizations to invest in the skills and knowledge needed to lead with purpose and transparency.
To further support organizations in strengthening their sustainability capabilities, ECCI and APEX Global are offering programs such as Climate Action Practitioner: GHG Accounting & Management (August 8, 11, and 12) and Sustainable Finance 101 (August 28–29).
