Webinars & Trainings

As part of the DFGE Essentials webinar series, we look at the latest topics in the ESG and sustainability universe. The next webinars will focus on CSRD. Here we will take the individual steps towards CSRD compliance together with you. So don’t miss the start of the series.

Where does your company currently stand and which requirements do you need to fulfill along a suitable roadmap for the CSRD reporting obligation? These and other questions are currently worrying many companies.

We evaluate the status quo with you and focus on the biggest gaps. We then draw up a prioritized roadmap to overcome the challenges of CSRD in a timely and pragmatic manner. You can use the results today for preparation and internal discussion.

At DFGE, we help you to record and validate the essential information for the upcoming CSRD. As a complete package or modular for your management report, your annual report or for your non-financial report on your website.

Step by step to building your ESRS strategy and CSRD compliance!

Over the next few years, more than 50,000 companies in the EU – around 15,000 of them in Germany – will be obliged to prepare audit-proof, CSRD-compliant sustainability reporting with a staggered introduction. The European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) define the disclosure requirements for companies and specify over 1,000 possible quantitative and qualitative data requirements. The implementation of the ESRS poses major challenges for German SMEs in particular.

As part of the DFGE Essentials webinar series, we look at the CSRD and break down its requirements and the comprehensive reporting obligations of the ESRS into a concrete roadmap.

Based on a gap analysis and the determination of the individual ambition level, we show in the webinar how an individual roadmap and topic-specific action plans form the basis for a structured and sustainable ESRS strategy. In this way, we support companies in fulfilling the required disclosure obligations, efficiently closing identified gaps and enabling audit-proof reporting.

As part of the DFGE Essentials webinar series, we want to focus on the strategic implementation of key topics. Starting with the implementation concept, we will look at the necessary process steps and highlight the dependencies within the complex ESRS reporting. We at DFGE will help you to record and validate the essential information for the upcoming CSRD. As a complete package or modular for your management report, your annual report or for your non-financial report on your website.

In this webinar, participants will learn how qualitative data collection forms the basis for sustainable business strategies within the Climate Transition Plan. Our experts will explain methods for collecting and analyzing high-quality data and show how this data can be used to develop effective climate protection measures and the strategic framing of these. Practical insights will be provided to strengthen future-oriented, sustainable business management.

Analyzing climate risks and opportunities enables companies to take a proactive and forward-looking approach to dealing with climate-related challenges. By improving resilience through systematic risk assessment, companies can position themselves for long-term success in a rapidly changing world. In the webinar, we will provide insights into how this can be achieved, looking in particular at the requirements of CSRD.

As part of the DFGE Essentials webinar series, we would like to take a closer look at the topic of determining product carbon footprints. Mapping the complexity of products over their entire life cycle is a requirement that more and more industries are facing.

Companies need know-how and systems to fulfill the necessary reporting (especially to the customer), but also the transparency to incorporate the knowledge into product and process development. Our experts will provide different approaches and concrete examples of implementation. We will also discuss the requirements and background of Catena-X and Cofinity-X, particularly in the automotive industry.

We at DFGE will help you to implement the topic of emissions accounting in a valid and pragmatic way.

In this webinar, participants will learn all about the ISO 14068-1 standard on “Carbon Neutrality”. Further information will follow.

Companies affected by the CSRD are well advised to deal with the requirements of the ESRS at an early stage, to design their data collection and reporting structures to be ESRS-compliant and to provide the human resources.

The user training is aimed at all those who are actively involved in sustainability reporting. With a training duration of 16 hours, the user training provides a comprehensive and in-depth insight into ESRS and CSRD. In particular, the case studies help to make the requirements of ESRS more tangible. In addition, the user training goes into detail on selected challenges, such as the corporate carbon footprint, scenario analyses, transition plans and ESG opportunities and risks.
