Carbon Footprint Training Courses
Learning the skills and knowledge required to measure and report greenhouse gas (carbon) emissions isn’t a simple process. Here you can find a number of reputable resources to support you in your efforts.
Reading a copy of the ISO 14064-1 or Greenhouse Gas Protocol standards is a good start to the carbon emissions reporting journey but does not provide sufficient knowledge to prepare a greenhouse gas (carbon) emissions to the quality required to undergo an independent audit. Below is a list of training courses that we can recommend to cover the basic information required to measure and report greenhouse gas emissions for a New Zealand-based organisation, as well as reporting guidances you should be familiar with.
