The “B Corp” movement began with a utopian vision of the world’s big corporations championing the environment and acting in the best interests of society. Today, there are well over 5,000 companies who have certified as “B Corporations”, and they’re spread out all over the globe.

So clearly, it's a growing movement, with some huge companies already involved. But what exactly is a B Corp? Well, this course has been designed to explain that, and also reveal why getting your business certified as a B Corp is good for the world, and what the wider-reaching benefits are.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

• Recognize what it means to be a B Corp
• Describe the B Corp certification process
• Identify reasons for making the transition

Why take this course?

It used to be the case that it was only nonprofit organizations that were committed to tackling environmental and social problems. But the B Corp movement is changing that by growing a network of for-profit companies which champion sustainability-related initiatives. The idea is to harness the power of business for the benefit of society. If you’re a business owner or leader, and that sounds like something you want to be a part of, this course will show you the way forward.
