Expand your expertise as a Greenhouse Gas Accountant (TÜV) by exploring these critical areas, integral to mastering product carbon footprint training and sustainability reporting:

IPCC AR6, Carbon Pricing, and EU CBAM

Stay at the forefront of climate science by understanding the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Sixth Assessment Report (IPCC AR6). This comprehensive report provides the latest insights into climate change impacts, adaptation, and vulnerability. Learn about Carbon Pricing mechanisms, including taxes and cap-and-trade systems, which are crucial tools for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, delve into the European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (EU CBAM), a policy designed to prevent carbon leakage and encourage global emission reductions by adjusting the price of imports based on their carbon content.

Introduction to ISO 14067 & GHG Protocol

Gain foundational knowledge of ISO 14067, the international standard specifying principles and guidelines for quantifying and reporting the carbon footprint of products. Understand how to apply the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, the world's most widely used framework for measuring and managing greenhouse gas emissions. This protocol provides standards, guidance, tools, and training for businesses and governments to build effective GHG programs.

LCA, PCR, CFP, EPD, and EF

Explore the intricacies of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), a systematic analysis of the environmental impacts of products throughout their entire life cycle. Understand how Product Category Rules (PCR) provide specific guidance for calculating and reporting product-related environmental impacts. Master the concepts of Carbon Footprint of Products (CFP) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), which transparently communicate the environmental performance of products. Familiarize yourself with the Environmental Footprint (EF) methods developed by the European Commission to assess environmental impacts.

Quantification of the CFP and Partial CFP

Develop the competence to accurately quantify the Carbon Footprint of Products (CFP) and partial CFPs using standardized methodologies. Learn how to collect data, perform calculations, and apply allocation rules to determine the greenhouse gas emissions associated with each stage of a product's life cycle. This skill is essential for identifying emission hotspots and developing strategies for reduction.

CFP Reporting

Acquire the ability to create comprehensive CFP Reports that effectively communicate your findings to stakeholders. Learn the best practices for documenting methodologies, data sources, assumptions, and results. Ensure that your reports meet the requirements of ISO 14067 and are transparent, consistent, and credible.

Verification and Critical Review of CFP Reports

Master the processes for verification and critical review of CFP Reports to ensure their accuracy and reliability. Understand how to apply ISO 14064-3 standards for validating and verifying greenhouse gas assertions. Learn to critically assess the completeness, consistency, and transparency of CFP reports, and provide constructive feedback to improve their quality.
