Understand the issues relating to anthropogenic influences on climate change, the potential business implications arising from economic and policy decisions and how government and communities can respond.

Find the carbon hotspots in your workplace. Understand the importance of behavioural change in reducing carbon emissions. Know how to source and evaluate appropriate carbon offsets. Become aware of options regarding plant and equipment improvements and improve your marketing and communication of the positive actions you are taking.

This face-to-face course consists of 8 full days of tuition covering all the above topics spread over 8 weeks.

The program has been designed with timeframes that give you time to gather supporting information in between classes to create your first carbon management response plan and gain feedback and assistance from your class mates and instructors as you employ your new skills in the workplace with maximum impact.

Course cost: $1,800 (AUD)

Locations: Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

The aims of the course are to:
