FOCUSING ON
  • Sustainability, ESG & GHG Accounting: An Integrated Overview
  • Scientific Basis of GHG Accounting, Emissions and Climate Change
  • GHG Accounting Process: Fundamentals and Protocol-Based Practices
  • GHG Accounting Process and ISO 14064 Standards

INTRODUCTION

Many organizations are beginning to focus on managing their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for various reasons: reducing environmental impact, preparing for regulations, meeting evolving disclosure requirements, enhancing energy efficiency, and strengthening their reputation as environmental leaders. Establishing an inventory of emissions sources (e.g., carbon footprint) is a crucial first step in assessing risks, reducing emissions, and monitoring performance.

This course is designed for professionals involved in measuring, reporting, and managing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within their organizations. The course will cover fundamental GHG accounting principles, referencing the WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol Corporate Standard and ISO 14064: Part 1 international standard for GHG inventories.

Participants will gain up-to-date knowledge on GHG emissions accounting and management, background to climate change, developing a carbon accounting system, managing GHG emissions and options for reducing GHG emissions. The course also emphasizes effective communication to engage stakeholders in emission reduction efforts.

This course provides an essential understanding of carbon accounting methodologies based on ISO14064 and the GHG Protocol: Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standards. These globally recognized standards form the foundation for many local and international programs, providing tools for industries and governments to develop their emission reduction initiatives.

AFTER ATTENDING THIS COURSE YOU WILL RETURN TO YOUR JOB…
  1. Understanding the principles of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Standard.
  2. Gaining knowledge of the ISO 14064 Standard.
  3. Identifying sources of GHG emissions.
  4. Performing GHG calculations accurately.
  5. Developing effective GHG mitigation strategies.
  6. Assessing GHG audit and verification processes.
  7. Preparing and interpreting GHG reports.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is ideal for Safety Committees, Environmental Managers, Sustainability Professionals, and anyone responsible for identifying GHG sources, performing emissions calculations, developing mitigation strategies, and conducting GHG audits.
METHODOLOGY
The course incorporates slides, handouts, practical tools, real-world case studies, interactive exercises, Q&A sessions, and relevant video materials.
