Environmental Training Courses

The Stern report recommends carbon pricing as an important market tool to reduce carbon emissions. Putting a price to carbon allows organisations to incorporate carbon emissions in cost benefit analysis and impact assessment. This course explains the key principles behind carbon pricing and demonstrates with practical examples how it can be incorporated into decision making.

With movement towards a carbon-constrained world, there is a growing interest in understanding and accounting for greenhouse gas emissions as a means of feeding robust information into policy and decision making processes. In North America, California has been leading the way towards formal accounting and reporting; with the passing of the Global Warming Solutions Act in 2006 (Assembly Bill 32) , the Air Resources Board has been mandated to implement a regulatory reporting program applicable to key sectors and facilities with significant combustions sources. This includes a requirement for independent verification of reported data in order to provide confidence in the reports provided by organisations to the government.

An intensive course introducing the concept of carbon accounting, why it is powerful and how it should be undertaken using the latest footprinting methodologies. Includes coverage of GHG Reporting Protocol, ISO 14064 and PAS 2050. Delegates have the opportunity to undertake sample footprint calculations during the training.

A detailed course explaining the ecological footprint methodology and its underlying concepts. Demonstrates how the methodology can be applied at organisational or regional levels. The course is best suited to delegates wishing to use a more holistic sustainability indicator.

With movement towards a carbon-constrained world, there is a growing interest in understanding greenhouse gas emissions. Because of the often complex emissions of greenhouse gases - e.g. through processes and from sources related to a variety of an organization’s activities - third-party review of calculated and reported GHG emissions is widely used to provide confidence in reported results. The skill-set needed to conduct independent assessment for these activities often requires a systems-wide approach, including broad understanding of accounting, engineering, contracts, and more.
 

The Climate Registry (TCR) is supporting the delivery of training, via a number of organizations, covering its reporting requirements and expectations of verifiers. To address the growing interest in emissions accounting and verification Future Perfect Ltd, a leading provider of GHG verification training, is offering basic training for all interested individuals. This course can serve as a first step in gaining the type of knowledge that is required of individuals qualified to conduct certifications for Registry members and will support applications for accreditation under the ANSI/TCR programme.

This one-day briefing is designed for executives, decision makers, and operation managers in organizations of all sectors who have begun or are in the process of transitioning into a carbon-constraint economy.  The briefing will provide the latest outlook of legislative and regulatory development as well as emerging supply chain pressure related to greenhouse gas emission inventory, reporting, and disclosure in North America.  The following two-day course will delve into the specifics of GHG management system.

Please note this course does not require delegates to be pre-screened by CARB and it cannot be used towards the accreditation process but it does provide skills appropriate for the verification of a range of GHG inventory programs.

A comprehensive briefing on current GHG management issues. You will receive not only presentation of timely subject matter information but most importantly, through an open discussion forum, you will gain knowledge and insights into how these developments impact your current operations, your near-term obligations, your long-term risks, and how you need to anticipate and formulate responses.

This three-day course will provide the latest outlook of legislative and regulatory development as well as emerging supply chain pressure related to greenhouse gas emission inventory, reporting, and disclosure in North America. 

If you have just been tasked with the responsibility to develop a GHG management program or you have begun the process building a GHG inventory for your operation, this course is designed for GHG management practitioners with a strong emphasis to provide knowledge and skills necessary to develop a robust GHG inventory and verifiable reporting system.  

This NEW course in Carbon Accounting and Climate Change is designed to equip you with the necessary skills and knowledge to understand greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting.

With the advent of PAS2050 - the first attempt by a major institute to provide a product footprinting standard - organisations are increasingly asking us how they can undertake these complex analyses effectively. This course is aimed at organisations interested in commissioning a footprint study - but who also want to understand the risks of such a venture before committing precious resources.
