Return to HomepageWhat This Program Delivers
This program helps you build carbon management capabilities that provide clear visibility into your emissions while supporting strategic action on climate goals.
Measurement Foundation
You'll learn to calculate organizational carbon footprints using GHG Protocol standards. This includes understanding scope classifications, emission factors, and data collection methods that provide accurate baseline measurements.
- GHG Protocol standards and methodologies
- Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions calculation
- Carbon inventory development and tracking
Reduction Strategy
Develop actionable plans for reducing emissions across your operations. You'll learn to identify reduction opportunities, set meaningful targets, and create roadmaps that guide implementation efforts.
- Emissions hotspot identification methods
- Science-based reduction target setting
- Reduction roadmap development
Beyond meeting reporting requirements, effective carbon management helps you understand where climate risks and opportunities exist within your operations. You'll develop capabilities that support strategic decision-making while demonstrating climate leadership to stakeholders.
The Carbon Management Challenge
Many organizations recognize the importance of addressing carbon emissions but face obstacles in developing effective management systems. These challenges can make progress feel uncertain.
Data Collection Complexity
Calculating carbon footprints requires gathering data from multiple sources including energy consumption, transportation, purchased goods, and supply chain activities. Understanding which data matters and how to obtain reliable information can feel overwhelming.
Scope 3 Emissions Uncertainty
Value chain emissions often represent the largest portion of total footprint but exist outside direct control. Determining which Scope 3 categories apply to your organization and finding ways to measure them requires careful consideration.
Reduction Pathway Development
Moving from emissions measurement to meaningful reduction requires identifying opportunities, assessing feasibility, and prioritizing actions. Creating roadmaps that balance ambition with operational reality takes structured planning.
Target Setting Decisions
Determining appropriate emission reduction targets involves understanding science-based approaches, stakeholder expectations, and organizational capabilities. Setting goals that demonstrate commitment while remaining achievable requires careful analysis.
These challenges are common across organizations beginning their carbon management journey. Building structured capabilities for measurement and reduction helps transform climate commitments into actionable strategies.
Our Approach to Carbon Management
This program provides systematic methods for establishing carbon management capabilities aligned with international standards while addressing your organizational context.
Foundation Building
Begin by understanding GHG Protocol standards and developing your baseline carbon inventory. You'll learn to identify emission sources across all scopes and establish data collection processes.
Strategy Development
Analyze your footprint to identify emission hotspots and reduction opportunities. You'll develop strategies for addressing key sources while setting targets aligned with climate science and stakeholder expectations.
What Makes This Approach Work
Rather than overwhelming you with complexity, we focus on building carbon management capabilities progressively. The emphasis is on creating systems that provide reliable data while supporting practical emission reduction efforts.
Your Learning Journey
Working through this program, you'll develop both technical carbon accounting skills and strategic planning capabilities for emission reduction.
Understanding GHG Protocol
You'll explore the fundamental principles of greenhouse gas accounting including organizational boundaries, operational boundaries, and the three scope classifications. This foundation helps you understand what emissions your organization should measure.
Building Carbon Inventories
Learn to gather activity data from across your operations and apply emission factors to calculate your carbon footprint. You'll work through practical exercises covering energy use, transportation, and value chain emissions.
Developing Reduction Strategies
Analyze your footprint to identify where the largest emission sources exist and which offer the most feasible reduction opportunities. You'll learn to evaluate different reduction approaches including energy efficiency, renewable energy, and supply chain engagement.
Creating Management Systems
Develop ongoing processes for carbon data collection, target tracking, and progress reporting. You'll establish systems that support continued carbon management while adapting to changing organizational needs.
The program balances technical carbon accounting with strategic planning. You'll gain confidence in calculating emissions while developing the judgment needed to create realistic reduction strategies within your organizational context.
Program Investment
This program represents an investment in developing carbon management capabilities that support climate action while strengthening stakeholder confidence in your environmental commitment.

How Progress Develops
Building carbon management capabilities takes time as you gather data, develop understanding, and create systems. Knowing what to expect helps maintain momentum.
Foundation Phase
Learning GHG Protocol standards, defining organizational boundaries, and beginning baseline carbon footprint calculation. You'll develop understanding of emission sources and measurement approaches.
Analysis Phase
Completing carbon inventory, identifying emission hotspots, and exploring reduction opportunities. This phase emphasizes understanding where actions can have meaningful impact.
Strategy Phase
Setting reduction targets, developing implementation roadmaps, and establishing monitoring systems. You'll create plans that guide ongoing carbon management efforts.
What to Expect
Initial carbon footprint calculations often reveal data gaps that require creative problem-solving and estimation methods
Scope 3 emissions present particular measurement challenges and may require multiple iterations to refine
Reduction strategies need balancing between ambition and operational feasibility based on available resources
Carbon management systems improve over time as you refine data collection and learn from implementation experience
Effective carbon management develops through successive measurement cycles where each iteration improves data quality and strategic understanding. This program prepares you to navigate this learning process with realistic expectations and structured guidance.
