GARP SCR Masterclass 2023

Welcome

GARP’s Physical Risk Masterclass for SCR Certificate Holders

Thank you for registering to participate in this special project offered by GARP and XDI, the Cross Dependency Initiative, to equip Sustainability and Climate Risk (SCR™) Certificate holders with practical experience in assessing physical risk.

We are excited to have participants from all around the world and hope that this project serves as a useful hands-on learning opportunity in a critical climate risk area. In addition to an online community group, there will also be virtual meetings at both the start and end of this project, so please do take this as an opportunity to meet others in our SCR community.

For those that were able to join one of our kick-off meetings on 21^st February, you will find links to the various resources and platforms needed to complete the project below.

Instructions for the GARP EasyXDI Assessment

Following the virtual kick-off meeting, log in to Easy XDI and create a new account. To do this you must use the email address you used to register for this project. This short video will help you navigate your way around the platform.

Once you are ready to work through the assessment, we would recommend setting aside between one to two hours to complete the exercises. You are also able to spread the assignment over multiple sittings if more convenient.
