Course Description
Climate change is a major challenge due to the scale of its potential impacts and the uncertainty surrounding projections—when they will occur and how large the effects will be. In recent years, there has been growing concern about predicting, measuring, and managing the risks climate change poses. Because this is a relatively new topic, information can be limited, and this course offers a solid starting point to assess your exposure.
If you are a decision maker or a risk manager, this course will help you grasp the basics of climate-change risks and how to mitigate them to reduce their impact. If you are simply someone concerned about climate risks and how they could affect you, this course is also for you.
In this course, you will learn:
- What climate risk is and why it matters to you
- The types of climate risks and their potential impacts
- How to measure and manage climate risks
- Whether there are valuable opportunities that can arise from climate risks
There are also a few bonus lectures on green and blue bonds—innovations that have emerged in response to climate-change risks. By exploring these topics, you’ll gain practical insights you can apply in your organization or personal decision-making. The content is designed to build your understanding from fundamental concepts to actionable strategies, helping you move from awareness to effective risk management and opportunity identification in the context of a changing climate.

The volume level of the recording was very low and even at full volume on my computer, it was difficult at times to clearly hear what the speaker was saying. Course could be more engaging with video rather than just speaking to the slides.

I am from Bangladesh which is a more vulnerable country in terms of climate change. Most of the physical risks mentioned in the courses are very well known to Bangladesh as well as transitional risks. That is why I am choosing this course.

The course was made in such a way that does not overwhelm the students on using technical terms. In other words, the course was simplified and yet very useful. It may be better in using some videos and photos and need to improve on the audio quality. Overall, this is a very good course especially for beginners.

The course gives a great overview of climate risk and actually gives you something to think about. However, the sound must be fixed as it fluctuates between slides. I could barely hear without putting the volume on 100%. In any case would be too loud in other sections. Overall great short course

This is a great and straightforward course to use as complementary educational material. I recommend adding some business case examples and giving more detail on how to develop climate change risk management from scratch. Thank you for this course, Maria.

It is a nice course, but expected a little bit in - depth knowledge especially regarding climate risk opportunities such as green & blue bonds (especially their origin, global scenario of their development, future pathways, etc.)
By Anonymized User on 8/11/2022
Relevant course with subtle information relating to climate changes. The course could have associated with ethical business and how the company should consider consumer's perspectives such as expectations and how their behavioural changes
By Faalgun Mehta on 5/11/2022
Overall good experience in exposing new concepts like climate risk management. Please try to cover concepts in more detail and example. Initially it good course for a basic understanding of climate risk management.

Excelente curso, de manera simplificada pero muy completa te hace ver los riesgos actuales del cambio climático. Te explica muy bien los tipos de riesgos y es muy ágil, no se hace tedioso en ningún momento.
