This workshop offers a deep dive into the methodologies, tools, and best practices essential to understanding and managing the accounting, measurement and reporting of Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions. More specifically, you will gain a thorough understanding of the three scopes of emissions as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and learn how to accurately identify, quantify, and report emissions associated with direct operations (Scope 1), purchased energy (Scope 2), and the indirect activities along your organisational’s value chain (Scope 3). In this latter respect, challenging aspects of the developing a carbon footprint such as greenhouse inventory, formulating boundaries, baselines and materiality and finally, carbon assurance and verification will be discussed. Led by an experienced instructor with extensive experience in sustainability, carbon management and assurance, this workshop also offers a unique opportunity to engage with peers, exchange insights, and gain actionable knowledge to drive your organisational sustainability goals.
