Climate change is the main environmental challenge we are facing at a global level. Its consequences are becoming more evident every day and no population is immune to the problem.
In an effort to minimise the consequences of climate change, various initiatives and tools have been developed.
One such example can be found in carbon markets: trading systems through which governments, companies or individuals can sell or buy greenhouse gas emission reductions.

- Entrepreneurs and professionals in the environmental sector who aspire to take on new responsibilities in industrial environmental management and in the requirements for minimising climate change.
- University graduates who wish to acquire a solid background in the field of carbon markets.
- Anyone interested in learning about carbon markets.
What will you achieve through the course?
Once you have completed the training course, you will be able to:
- Assess the issue of climate change and understand the importance of combating the problem.
- Understand the current and future situation of carbon markets.
- Analyse the evolution of carbon prices.
- Understand the financing mechanisms for national and international projects.

Why does Bureau Veritas recommend it?
In order to meet our needs, large quantities of products have to be generated, which leads, among other things, to the generation of high levels of greenhouse gases (GHG).
As a result, the world as we know it is changing. Every year maximum temperatures are higher, droughts are longer, extreme weather conditions are more frequent, and wildfires are fiercer.
It is therefore necessary to reduce the environmental pressures generated by our activities! This is why companies must make use of tools such as carbon markets, which minimise the GHGs emitted, thus combating climate change.
