As sustainability becomes a central business imperative, organisations are under increasing pressure to turn ambitious ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) commitments into concrete action. Yet, a persistent lack of expertise, resources, and buy-in remains a barrier to progress. Our survey of 258 professionals across industries reveals that targeted sustainability training is a critical lever for overcoming these challenges, closing knowledge gaps, and embedding sustainable practices into company culture and operations. Although the survey was conducted during 2023–2024, the data remains highly relevant today, as the core challenges, barriers, and trends identified — such as the persistent lack of expertise, the importance of management buy-in, and the effectiveness of various training methods — continue to shape the sustainability landscape across organisations.

This factsheet explores how companies are addressing knowledge gaps, who receives training, which methods work best, and what leaders can do to drive impact. While the data was collected during 2023–2024, the insights remain highly relevant, reflecting enduring trends that continue to shape sustainability performance today.

Here’s what you’ll find inside:

  • Sustainability training to face the lack of expertise
  • Broadening the reach—Who receives sustainability training?
  • Training methods: How organisations deliver sustainability learning
  • Effectiveness and satisfaction: What’s working, what’s not?
  • Who drives sustainability? Leadership and ownership
  • Trends and insights: Lessons from the field
  • Nexio Projects training programmes: Bridging the gap
