All of our videos are subtitled, and we have paid attention to the contrast to increase visibility. We have not yet passed a formal test of compliance in line with WACG standards.
We keep abreast of relevant sustainability news and trends to help inform our content priorities. We continually work with other partners within the ecosystem to make sure there are no gaps in our content.
Each year we send our tentative roadmap to our clients to get their help in prioritizing and adding courses we might have missed.
We produce an average of one new course every two months, i.e. 6 new courses a year.
Each year we carry out a review of all our courses to determine whether it is necessary to update videos, add resources or take into account new standards or regulations.
On top of that we update the course all along the year fixing small typos, or making a wording more precise based on users feedbacks.
It is an annual subscription based on the number of employees within your organisation. Feel free to contact us to know more.
We originally built the product with the intent to fix the pain of bringing sustainability “at scale” so our product and our business model are particularly well suited for large companies.
But over time we encountered a lot of organisations of different size and we now works with several dozens of SME, public administrations, universities, NGO… Our smallest clients have around 100 employees, so our model has evolved to cover all those needs.
