Context & Policy
Science & Commercial Impact
We cover the essential science of climate change but quickly pivot to the commercial reality. You will learn to identify physical and transition risks, ranging from supply chain disruption to asset devaluation, that directly threaten your clients' balance sheets.
Regulation, Policy & Opportunities
Navigate the changing regulatory landscape as we unpack the UK Net Zero Strategy and upcoming legislation. Crucially, we explore the commercial opportunities of sustainability so you can help clients win tenders and access green finance.

Carbon Accounting & Frameworks
Demystifying the data. You will gain a practical understanding of Carbon Accounting and learn exactly how to measure Scopes 1, 2 and 3 using the GHG Protocol. We break down key reporting frameworks, including UK SRS and SECR, so you know exactly what 'good' reporting looks like.
