Sustainable Investment Advice course

The Sustainable Investment Advice course equips advisers with the essential tools, resources, and strategies to seamlessly integrate sustainable and ethical investing into their practice. Covering the latest in ESG, sustainable finance, and climate-related risks and opportunities, this course provides everything needed to build lasting client relationships founded on values-aligned portfolios.

This comprehensive, self-paced training offers continued access to all course materials, ensuring advisers can revisit and apply the insights as their understanding evolves. By completing this course, you’ll be well-prepared to attract new clients, engage in values-driven conversations, and offer advice that reflects a sustainable future.

With four core learning pillars, the course enables you to:

Sustainable investment strategies, ESG frameworks, and emerging trends

Ethical investment products and their alignment with client values
Clients in meaningful discussions about their values and sustainability goals
Holistic, sustainable investment solutions that build trust and long-term relationships

Additionally, the course includes bonus lessons on marketing and business integration, alongside practical tools, templates, and checklists to help you apply what you’ve learned directly to your practice.

Advisers can earn CPD/CE credit, with content tailored to Australian and Aotearoa New Zealand case studies, ensuring best practice advice is delivered to every client.

The Ethical Advisers’ Co-op acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and live, the Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander people of Australia, and pay our respect to the Elders past, present and emerging. We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and relationship with the land and waters, and recognise their role in caring for and maintaining the land over thousands of years. We also extend that respect to other First Nations. We see reconciliation as a fundamental responsibility for The Ethical Advisers’ Co-op and we are committed to advancing reconciliation with Australia’s First Peoples and engaging with their concerns.

We acknowledge and pay our respects to Māori as the tangata whenua the indigenous people of Aoteroa (New Zealand) and their ancestors who have cared for the whenua (land), its forests, rivers, and mountains for generations. We recognise their continuing connection and contribution to the whenua, and as Treaty of Waitangi partners and we are committed to building respectful relationships with Māori communities and to working towards a more just and equitable society.

As ethical financial advisors, we commit to building respectful relationships with Indigenous communities, working towards economic empowerment and self-determination, and supporting the financial well-being of all Australians and New Zealanders. We recognise that ethical financial advice creates positive change and contributes to a sustainable future, and we are committed to using our skills and expertise to make a difference.
