Climate Awareness in the Automotive Industry

“The imperative for sustainability in the automotive industry represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for OEMs. Those that battle the current will soon find themselves struggling to stand their ground.” — Alexandre Audoin, Head of Global Automotive, Capgemini Group

This course will equip automotive professionals with the knowledge and skills to integrate climate awareness and sustainability into their industry practices.
