This 2-day course revisits some of the key concepts, principles and practices, of organizational GHG emissions and removals quantification and reporting, outlined in ISO 14064-1; and summarizes related requirements for carbon footprinting of products, provided by ISO 14067. This refresh then provides the foundation required to know and understand the key principles and requirements for demonstrating carbon neutrality, following a hierarchy on a pathway to Net Zero, outlined by ISO 14068-1. The course aims to explain how the pathway is used in developing a carbon neutrality management plan, the methodologies used for carbon footprint quantification, use of offset, and provides clear guidance for those responsible for the achievement of carbon neutrality.
How will I benefit?
The course will help you:
- Understand the basics of climate change and its impact on Planet Earth and human society
- To know and understand the international trends and efforts to address the climate crisis, including evolving policy and regulatory landscape related to carbon reduction, carbon neutrality, and net zero
- Develop a comprehensive strategy to achieve carbon neutrality, on your pathway to net zero
- Understand the requirements for selection of a carbon neutrality subject and the quantification of its carbon footprint
- Understand the hierarchy on a carbon neutrality pathway in ISO 14068-1, including emission reduction, removal enhancement and possible use of carbon credits for offsetting
- Embed GHG management and carbon neutrality into your environmental and energy management activities
- Improve environmental and energy performance, contributing to reduced risk, carbon emissions, and associated costs
- Enhance your sustainability credentials and improve organizational resilience
Support your organization and local, national, and regional endeavours to mitigate climate risks and wider social and corporate governance efforts
Who should attend?
The pathway to Net Zero and achievement of carbon neutrality is relevant to any organization, of any size, in any sector, and in any country. Through an organization's operations and value chains, carbon neutrality is an important milestone to achieving Net Zero. All functions and levels within an organization can contribute to the achievement of carbon neutrality, so knowledge and understanding of key concepts and principles across an entire organization and its value chain partners can help develop carbon reduction plans and strategies.
Suggested job roles include those responsible for developing, implementing, and managing policies, processes and practices, leading to the achievement of carbon neutrality, such as:
- Technical and non-technical representatives, involved in generating a relevant GHG inventory, reducing GHG emissions, implementing GHG removals, obtaining carbon offsets, and managing the appropriate documentation to confirm the organization’s carbon neutrality status
- Administrators, operatives, technicians, supervisors, managers, senior managers, functional heads, directors, and executive directors requiring knowledge and understanding of carbon neutrality
- Those with roles/responsibilities linked directly or indirectly in support of carbon neutrality endeavours, including Environmental Managers, Energy Managers, Sustainability Managers, Corporate Social Responsibility Managers, Environmental, Social and Governance Managers, Public Relations and external consultants
What will I learn?
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Outline the key principles, requirements, terms, and guidelines of ISO 14068-1
- Describe the relationship between ISO 14068-1 and the broader family of ISO standards addressing GHG emissions, and environmental management
- Develop a plan to become carbon neutral: Quantification, reduction, offsetting and reporting
- Prepare and document a carbon neutrality management plan
- Claim and maintain carbon neutrality status
- Outline the evolving policy and regulatory landscape related to carbon neutrality claiming
