PwC Nigeria has announced the launch of it Sustainability Academy, one of the diverse offerings at the PwC Nigeria Business School.
In a statement from the firm, Partner, Consulting and Risk Services Leader, PwC Nigeria, Femi Osinubi, said that the academy is a flagship programme dedicated to equipping professionals with the knowledge, skills, and tools to navigate the complexities of the sustainability landscape.
He stated: “Launching our Sustainability Academy is significant for us at PwC Nigeria. In an era where re-skilling and up skilling are critical to achieving sustainability goals. The academy is designed to empower business leaders and professionals with actionable strategies to lead their organisations boldly into the future.
“The timing of this launch could not be more appropriate. Sustainability is no longer just a boardroom topic; it is a core driver of strategy, resilience, and value creation. However, it also comes with challenges—balancing immediate pressures with long-term goals, aligning internal capabilities, and staying ahead of regulatory and market expectations. This is why up skilling is paramount.
“We at PwC have decided to be at the heart of driving the right knowledge rooted in real-world insights, innovative strategies, and harnessing the requisite expertise needed to drive value for organisations through the lens of sustainability.”
Also, Partner and Head, ESG, Sustainability & Climate Change, PwC Nigeria, Marilyn Obaisa-Osula, said: “Sustainability has often been seen as a ‘good to have’ rather than a strategic imperative. Today, we are shifting that narrative by launching the PwC’s Sustainability Academy, which aims to bridge knowledge gaps and equip industry leaders with the tools needed to navigate the dynamic ESG regulatory ecosystem.
“Embracing compliance as a strategic opportunity can reduce costs, improve margins, and increase brand value, resulting in sustainable top-line growth. By aligning environmental and social responsibility with business success, companies can position themselves as leaders in an increasingly interconnected market”.
Commenting, Partner and PwC Business School Leader, Uloma Ojinmah, stated: “The Sustainability Academy exemplifies our dedication to sustainability. It is one of our academies amongst others offered by PwC Nigeria’s Business School”.
