Business is facing increased scrutiny with respect to the sustainability implications of its operations. Against this setting, companies are exploring ways in which enhancing sustainability performance creates organisational value. This unit focuses on the ways in which sustainability impacts on the core functions performed by professionals in accounting and business. It considers both external and internal reporting aspects of corporate social and environmental sustainability, and the ways in which such information can be incorporated into decisions made within the entity. The implications of such information for the assurance function are also explored.
Minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per semester typically comprising a mixture of scheduled learning activities and independent study. Independent study may include associated readings, assessment and preparation for scheduled activities. You are expected to complete all pre-class activities prior to your scheduled class, and post-class activities should be completed after your scheduled class.
