Course Content

1

Introduction to GHG Accounting & ISO 14064-1

Overview of climate change and GHG emissions, introduction to the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1:2018 standard, understanding the importance of carbon footprinting, and regulatory drivers for GHG reporting.

2

Organisational & Operational Boundaries

Defining organisational boundaries using equity share, financial control, or operational control approaches. Establishing operational boundaries, identifying emission sources, and categorising activities into Scopes 1, 2, and 3.

3

Carbon Footprint Calculation Methodologies

Understanding calculation methodologies including direct measurement, mass balance, and activity-based approaches. Selecting appropriate emission factors, handling data gaps, and ensuring calculation accuracy and consistency.

4

Scope 1, 2 & 3 Emissions Quantification

Detailed guidance on quantifying Scope 1 direct emissions (stationary combustion, mobile combustion, fugitive emissions), Scope 2 location-based and market-based electricity emissions, and Scope 3 value chain emissions across 15 categories.

5

GHG Inventory Development & Reporting

Building a GHG inventory management plan, implementing data collection systems, performing uncertainty analysis, preparing GHG reports and disclosures, and understanding verification and assurance requirements.

Assessment & Certification

Practical Assessments

Participants are assessed through practical exercises including carbon footprint calculations, GHG inventory development, and case study analysis. These activities are designed to evaluate understanding and application of ISO 14064-1 requirements and GHG accounting methodologies.

Certificate of Completion

Delegates successfully completing the course, including all practical assessments, will be awarded a Certificate of Completion. This certificate demonstrates competence in carbon footprint assessment and GHG inventory development in accordance with ISO 14064-1:2018.
