    Hear It From Our Past Participants!

    ISCA Sustainability Professional Certification Programme

    There is a growing international emphasis on enhancing climate-related disclosures for a more comprehensive comprehension of the impacts of climate change.

    ISCA, supported by the ISCA Sustainability and Climate Change Committee (SCCC) has launched two specialised programmes:

    • ISCA Sustainability Professional Certification

    Targeted at accounting and other professionals who are supporting their organisations in sustainability reporting

    • ISCA Sustainability Assurance Professional Certification 

    Targeted at accounting and other professionals who are involved in providing assurance* to sustainability reports. Completion of this programme does NOT certify you as a Climate Auditor*.

    *Based on the latest SRAC Recommendation, external assurance on mandatory climate reporting should be provided ACRA-registered audit firm and Testing, Inspection, Certification firms accredited by the Singapore Accreditation Council (SAC). SAC is the national accreditation body that manages and promotes accreditation schemes and registration programmes.

    These initiatives aim to equip individuals with the essential skills in sustainability reporting and/or assurance, including embarking on a decarbonisation journey for their organisations to mitigate risks and capture emerging opportunities by calculating the Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon footprints, set emissions reduction targets, develop climate transition action plans and report on the organisations' performance.

    What are the reporting standards covered in Modules 103 and 104?

    The modules will focus on the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). The modules will also provide an overview of other prominent standards and frameworks:
    • Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) 
    • European Sustainability Reporting Standards(ESRS)
    • Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
    • Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP)
    • Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB)
     

    What are the assurance standards covered in Modules 105 and 106?

    The modules will focus on sustainability assurance in accordance with ISSA 5000.
    Participants will also obtain an understanding of: 
    • ISAE 3000/SSAE3000
    • ISO 14064-3 
    • Assurance requirements in Singapore pursuant to the recommendations of the Sustainability Reporting Advisory Committee (SRAC)

     

      

    If I am not a public accountant, can I provide assurance services after completing the ISCA Sustainability Assurance Professional Certification?

    For assurance services on the anticipated mandatory climate reporting proposed under the ACRA's and SGX RegCo's consultation paper on the recommendations by the Sustainability Reporting Advisory Committee (SRAC), the SRAC's proposal is to only allow ACRA-registered audit firms and SAC-accredited TIC firms to register as climate auditors. There are also additional requirements for the signing individuals. You may refer to the recommendations in Section E of the consultation paper for more information. 

    For other types of sustainability assurance, which are voluntary, for example assurance over other aspects of the sustainability report, the current exposure draft of ISSA 5000 is proposed to be profession-agnostic, i.e. non-public accountants may be able to provide such assurance as well, provided they meet certain requirements under the standards. 

    Kindly note that the above are still in the process of finalisation, and these may change when they are finalised. There may also be new consultations which may change the regulatory landscape and requirements.
