Managing climate-related risks and supporting the transition to a low-carbon world are our most significant global challenges. In order to tackle this collective challenge, finance professionals globally need to develop their knowledge of green and sustainable finance.
We are delighted to announce the launch of an updated version of this global benchmark qualification, the Certificate in Green and Sustainable Finance.
Updated for 2022-23, Principles and Practice of Green and Sustainable Finance includes an online Study Guide for core reading and learning activities as well as interactive eLearning modules, including audio and visual resources, and online quizzes and knowledge checks to enhance understanding of key concepts.
Global surface temperatures are likely to rise under all scenarios by more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels by 2040 and by more than 2°C later in the century without dramatic and sustainable reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. This underpins the urgency and importance of aligning finance with the objectives of the Paris Agreement, and sustainability in general.
In order to tackle this collective challenge, every finance professional needs to develop a knowledge and understanding of green and sustainable finance.
This global, benchmark qualification will help individuals to develop their knowledge, understanding and ability to apply the key principles and core practice of green and sustainable finance.
The Certificate costs £625 per candidate, including all learning materials and the first sitting of your exam. Exam resits cost £145 per module.
In order to study the Certificate, you must become a member of the Institute. An annual subscription fee of £30.00 will be payable upon registration as part of the enrolment fees.

Managing climate-related risks and supporting the transition to a low-carbon world are amongst our most significant global challenges. Recognising the strategic importance of this topic, the Chartered Body Alliance have developed their first joint qualification, the Certificate in Climate Risk. First launched in 2021, this qualification has been substantially updated for 2022/23 to encompass a wide range of developments in our understanding of climate change and its impacts, the rapidly-evolving policy and regulatory landscape relating to climate risks, and the substantial progress in finance sector practice in addressing climate and broader sustainability risks.
The aim of the qualification is to develop the learner’s professional knowledge, understanding and skills relating to climate change, climate risk and sustainable finance, with a view to supporting customers, clients, colleagues, and communities with the transition to a sustainable, low-carbon world.
This Study Guide and course have been revised to include:
