The course features guided labs conducted in a virtual learning environment where students configure emission factor databases, perform data quality assessments, and build complete Scope 3 inventories. A key project involves developing a reduction roadmap for a simulated multinational corporation, integrating primary supplier data and secondary datasets to quantify emissions across all 15 Scope 3 categories and recommend mitigation strategies using science-based targets.
This training prepares learners for the globally recognized Carbon Management certification, which validates proficiency in comprehensive carbon accounting and aligns with international climate standards.
