The PRI Academy course RI Fundamentals is a thorough and well structured exposé of the challenges and opportunities of investing responsibly with a normative mindset.
PRI Academy provided me with a strong base of intelligence with which to evaluate ESG factors. Not only can these factors directly impact the value of an investment but they can have direct impacts on our quality of life.

I thought this course was an excellent overview of current thought and analysis with respect to Responsible Investing. I liked the progression, with an over view to start and then in-depth consideration of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) issues. Highly recommended for those starting in RI, and a great refresher for those like me with more experience.
