Sustainability Maturity Levels

Advance Your Understanding of Sustainability Maturity Levels

This course introduces the Sustainability Maturity Levels (SML) framework, created through the £16.5M ASCEND project led by GKN Aerospace. 

You’ll explore the six SML criteria, learn how they can be used to measure and improve sustainability performance, and discover how the framework enables fair, standardised assessment while safeguarding sensitive data. By the end, you’ll be ready to use SMLs to guide your organisation towards Net Zero.

What we'll cover: 

  • Understand the six SML criteria
  • Identify areas for improvement
  • Support your organisation’s path to Net Zero

This course builds on key concepts from the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) process. If you’re new to LCA, we recommend reviewing it first, as that background will make the content here much clearer.
