The "Impact of ESG-Related Matters on Financial Statements and Audits" training was highly informative and provided a clear understanding of how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues affect financial reporting and auditing practices. The course effectively covered key ESG concepts and illustrated their growing importance in financial disclosures. The training emphasized the need for auditors and companies to integrate ESG risks and opportunities into their financial assessments and audits, making it relevant and timely in today's business environment. The content was well-structured, offering both theoretical knowledge and practical insights into evaluating and reporting ESG-related risks. One of the most valuable aspects of the course was the real-world examples and case studies, which helped contextualize how ESG factors are being addressed in audits and financial statements. It was clear that ESG considerations are becoming more significant and should not be overlooked in audit processes. Overall, this training enhanced my understanding of the importance of ESG factors in financial reporting, and I feel more confident in applying this knowledge to my role. I would highly recommend this course to professionals looking to stay updated on ESG trends in financial audits.

Very educational. I have heard much about ESG in the news but have not dealt with it myself in the Federal Government as of yet. This was an excellent primer on the topic.
