Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
I show you how to use the Bloomberg Professional Service (i.e., the “Bloomberg Terminal”) to obtain Bloomberg Environmental Social Governance (ESG) certification. Bloomberg ESG certification is a new self-paced e-learning interactive course that can be taken for free when sitting in front of the Bloomberg Terminal. It is run by the Bloomberg for Education group at Bloomberg LP. I explain the structure of the Bloomberg ESG certification process and I give advice for anyone attempting to gain this certification. You can make Bloomberg ESG certification a formal requirement in your course or a strong recommendation. Bloomberg ESG certification augments the existing Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC) certification, as discussed in Crack (2023b). Exploiting BMC and ESG certification for undergraduate students, graduate students, and academic faculty is part of a virtuous cycle that builds knowledge and skills that lead to a self-reinforcing increase in the use of the Bloomberg Terminal at your institution, justifying its funding and adding value to all involved. Well-constructed hands-on Bloomberg exercises (e.g., Crack [2023a] and Crack [2023c] for value investing and ESG investing, respectively) buttress this virtuous cycle.
