Starting is easy! Simply browse our courses and select the ones you like from our course list. During the checkout process, you will be prompted to create your personal student account. If you already have an account, just log in and choose the courses from the list.

You can start your course right after you’ve made the successful payment. You will also receive lifetime access to your course. That means you can start the course at a later time, take as many breaks as you like, and even retake the entire course in the future.

We packed all the content into powerful short courses. Each course takes 2-3 hours to complete. All our courses are 100% online and self-paced. No additional reading material is required. You can find the duration per course here.

The courses can be viewed on a computer, a tablet, or a smartphone.

All our courses are designed for both students and non-students. Therefore, you need neither previous knowledge of sustainable business concepts nor any formal application to start. All you need is a web browser and some motivation!

Our online courses cost 49.99€. These costs include the course content as well as your personal certificate. There are no additional costs. You can find all the prices here.

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, etc.), major debit cards, and PayPal for your payment. Unfortunately, we do not accept manual bank transfers or money transfer services. If you use the credit card of a third party (e.g. family member or close friend), please make sure that this person approves your payment.

All of our courses have to be paid upfront. You can start studying immediately after the successful payment.

There are various reasons why a payment may fail. Here are some error sources and solutions:

• Use another credit card
• Check your entered credit card details for mistakes
• Make sure there is enough money on your account
• Use PayPal as alternative payment

To gain your personal course certificate, you have to complete an online course and a final exam. All of our final exams are multiple-choice. Don’t worry – you can retake the final exam several times free of charge. Also, there is no time limit for completing the course or the final exam. You will receive your certificate as a digital file (pdf). We do not send hard copies.

SustainableBiz holds its distance learning programs to the same high standards that are applied by traditional educational institutions. Our certificates are therefore acknowledged and accepted by employers around the world. Please note that we do not award academic titles or degrees. However, most organizations recognize SustainableBiz certificates as valid professional certificates. Make sure to add your achievements to your CV and your LinkedIn profile!

To find and download your certificates, log-in and navigate to “My Courses > My Certificates”.

As a European institution, we are guided by the education framework of the European Union (EU). The Digital Education Action Plan of the European Commission (EC) strengthens digital certificates and SustainableBiz supports the idea to replace paper-based documents with more modern alternatives. Therefore, you will receive all of your certificates as digital files (pdf), so you can easily store and share your qualifications. We do not send hard copies. If you need a hard copy of your certificate, we recommend printing it with a high-quality electrophotographic printer. Both documents – the digital certificate and your personal printout – are valid.

Employers and educational institutions can always verify our certificates by the ID code on each certificate.

If you complete 4 to 6 related courses in a specific field (e.g. Mini-MBA), you will receive a program certificate without any additional fees. You can find these programs on our course list here.
