I’m taking the SASB Level II exam next week. Level I was pretty easy for me, but the Level 2 study material has been harder for me to understand.

What was your experience? TIA

There’s a TCFD certificate?

Where’s info on this exam?

I’ve passed level 1 of the SASB FSA and completed the pilot exam for level 2 so I am waiting on the results. What sort of advice are you after?

Hey, sorry for the late reply.

I found level 2 much more difficult. The exam really focused on identifying the universe of sustainability issues eg identify the difference between data security and consumer privacy.

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!

And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
