Description

ISO 14064 – Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Standards – Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3

Master International Standards for Carbon Footprint Management and Climate Action

 

In the face of global climate challenges, accurate measurement and transparent reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are critical for organizational credibility and environmental stewardship. The ISO 14064 series provides the internationally recognized framework for quantifying, monitoring, reporting, and verifying GHG emissions and removals. This comprehensive course is your definitive guide to implementing ISO 14064-1 (organization level), ISO 14064-2 (project level), and ISO 14064-3 (verification). Gain the expertise to build a robust carbon management strategy, create credible GHG inventories, and contribute meaningfully to your organization's climate goals and regulatory compliance.
