Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Sustainability initiatives can provide com-petitive advantage for your organization.

Companies, governments, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations alike are increasingly expected to take re-sponsibility for their environmental, social, and wider economic impacts. Familiarity with these ‘corporate social responsibility’ (CSR) matters is increasingly becoming an important part of any job.

Gain a better understanding of CSR issues and their impacts on the bottom line, and build your awareness of emerging stake-holder concerns. Learn about key CSR topics and the business case for sustain-ability. Start to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to better communicate and manage these issues and eventually de-velop an organizational strategy for CSR.

Note: This is the first of a series of CSR courses to be offered.

It also provides specialized training for those already working in the profession.

Students may complete up to six credits (two courses) through Open Studies, after which they are required to officially apply and be accepted to the program to continue.

PROGRAM CREDIT PART-TIMEAt MacEwan School of Business, we know that real life can get in the way of full-time or day-time studies. That’s why we also offer our courses in the evening, Satur-days, and online. Courses may be taken on a part-time or full-time basis, and may be started in September, January, or May.

To get started without formally being ac-cepted to the program, or to simply try out a course or two, you may apply and be accepted as an Open Studies student – there are no admission requirements. As an Open Studies student, you may take two to three courses before you will be required to apply to the program and meet admission requirements for acceptance.

It is strongly recommended that you apply and be accepted to your program of choice as soon as possible. Once accepted to either Open Studies or your program of choice, you will be eligible to register for classes.
