Master Class: Offset Project Development & Implementation

DNV’s new Master Class programme combines several competence modules in order to provide project developers with the best skills for efficient management of carbon offset projects.

Master Class: Carbon Management

The Carbon Management Master Class provides comprehensive insight on important components of a company’s carbon strategy, as well as tools and procedures on how to reduce the company’s environmental footprint.

Carbon Market Fundamentals

In a world of too much and misleading information about climate change issues, it can be difficult to separate the facts from the myths, and to decide what to do. This course gives you the basic knowledge about climate change, and an overview of the opportunities in the regulated and voluntary carbon markets.

Developing Carbon Offset Projects

The rules and regulations for the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and Joint Implementation (JI) are fast changing. This also affects voluntary offset schemes like the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS) and the Gold Standard. It is a challenge to stay on top of the latest developments. This course enables you to understand the latest guidance and update your skills in an efficient way.

Monitoring Carbon Assets

Many Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), Joint Implementation (JI) and carbon offset projects fail to realise the full potential for carbon revenue, due to incorrect monitoring and reporting of emission reductions. This course provides the knowledge, skills and tools needed for the implementation of efficient emission reduction monitoring.

Building a Corporate Greenhouse Gas Inventory

Businesses today are under increasing pressure from consumers, shareholders and the media to report their contribution to climate change. This course provides participants with the necessary skills to ensure compliance of their corporate greenhouse gas inventory with applicable standards.

Energy Productivity Management

Although energy productivity has been on the agenda for decades, now more than ever it is crucial for climate change abatement, balanced energy policy development, and optimised business performance. Through key background and practical guidelines, this new course enables participants to capitalise on the full potential of energy productivity improvement.

Supply Chain Carbon Management

Consumers are increasingly aware and interested in the carbon footprint of the products they buy, which poses important challenges to consumer goods organisations. Successful efforts to reduce the carbon footprint of products require the adoption of innovative, cost-effective and responsible supply chain management practices.

Carbon Portfolio Risk Management

Steering a carbon offset project all the way from project initiation through to the issuance of carbon credits can be a long and rocky journey. Managing a project portfolio in line with an investor’s business objectives requires an understanding of the unique risk profile produced by the different carbon offset trading schemes.
