Description
If you're looking to build practical, job-ready skills in GHG accounting, carbon accounting, and ESG reporting, this course will take you from foundational concepts to real-world application.
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions sit at the center of climate change, sustainability reporting, and net zero strategies. Today, organizations across industries are expected to measure, manage, and disclose their carbon footprint using globally accepted frameworks such as the GHG Protocol. However, most learners struggle to move beyond theory and actually understand how emissions are calculated in practice - and that's exactly where this course stands out.
In this course, you will learn how to calculate emissions across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3, using realistic business scenarios and structured methodologies. We go beyond definitions and focus on how companies perform carbon accounting in real-world environments - from identifying emission sources and collecting activity data to applying emission factors and preparing accurate, audit-ready outputs.
You'll gain hands-on exposure to emission calculation techniques, including fuel combustion, electricity consumption, and value chain emissions. The course also helps you understand critical concepts like emission factors, global warming potential (GWP), data quality checks, and reporting frameworks used in ESG disclosures.
By the end of this course, you will have a strong understanding of how GHG inventories are developed, validated, and used for sustainability reporting, regulatory disclosures, and decarbonization strategies.
Whether you're aiming to build a career in sustainability, transition into ESG roles, or strengthen your understanding of carbon accounting and climate reporting, this course provides a clear, practical, and industry-relevant foundation.
