Earth Council Geneva (ECG), the GHG Experts Network (GEN) and ClimateCHECK have combined their expertise to form the GHG Management Institute, committed to professional learning on climate change.
“Our mission is to train and develop a community of experts with the highest standards of professional practice in measuring and managing GHG emissions,” said Gao Pronove, Managing Director of the Institute. “Our supported online learning platform, blending e-learning and interaction with expert instructors, allows us to train a global audience in the most effective manner possible.”
“The content that our GHG Protocol team designs is considered a global standard,” said Jonathan Lash, President of the World Resources Institute. WRI is working with the GHG Management Institute to develop its first course on corporate GHG emissions accounting. “It is critical that energy managers - whether they’re working on projects throughout the developing world or trying to make improvements at their individual companies - really get their heads around these issues.”
The GHG Management Institute’s focus is on GHG emissions accounting, inventories, management, and verification. The courses are developed and instructed by the same experts who prepared today’s international standards and founded national government programs.
