Scope 3 Carbon/Ghg Emissions Calculations Category 1 To 15.

Detailed videos with examples, all you need to know for calculating scope-3 emissions from category 1 to 15 using GHGP.

What you'll learn

Understanding the 15 categories of scope 3 carbon/ghg accounting and how to calculate them with some practical examples and cases.

Concept of materiality in carbon emissions calculations, the significance, considerations of materiality in different scenarios.

Understand the minimum boundary for calculation of each scope-3 categories 1 to 15 and understand why minimum boundary criteria is important for organizations.

Understanding site specific, industry average and spend based way of calculating emissions within these categories.

Requirements

The learner should have understanding of concept of carbon accounting, organization and operational boundaries, IPCC, UNFCCC and requirement of calculating carbon footprints.

My first course on decoding GHG emissions for beginners covers them all. Learners may opt to complete that first and then coming to this course.

Description

This detailed course is designed to provide learners with a decent understanding of Scope-3 Carbon Emissions/GHG accounting, including all categories from 1 to 15 as described by GHG protocol. Either you're an early-career professional or a seasoned one, an accountant, consultant, or sustainability enthusiast, this course will enable you with the tools and knowledge needed to accurately calculate and report Scope 3 emissions across your organization’s value chain following the minimum boundary requirements under GHG protocol standard.Through practical examples, real-world cases, and structured guidance, you'll learn how to quantify and manage indirect emissions from your supply chain, business operations, and product lifecycle. By the end of this course, you'll be able to integrate Scope 3 emissions into your GHG inventory and align your organization’s sustainability goals with global needs.Key learning Objectives:Understand the 15 categories.Know the minimum boundaries for the categories.Identify requirements for data gathering.Stay compliant with GHG protocol standard.Understand the emission factor databases, calculation formulas from examples.Understand concept of materiality.Who should take up this course:This course is ideal for:Sustainability consultants, accountants, EHS professionals, auditors, corporate sustainability professionals looking to transition into corporate roles.Professionals transitioning into roles with ESG reporting and data gathering responsibilities.IT professionals building products on sustainability.
