Urban Greenhouse Gas Inventory Specialist – Exam Prep
The certificate exam is the core component of the City Climate Planner Certificate Program. The exam was written and developed by experts in GHG emissions inventory accounting and is meant to rigorously test the knowledge of exam takers.
Successful completion of the exam demonstrates mastery of the GHG inventory building process and its connection to city climate planning and also supports professional development in the field.
The City Climate Planner programme is a collaboration between Green Business Certification Inc., ICLEI, and the World Resources Institute.
Cities around the world generate 70% of the greenhouse gases (GHG) that contribute to climate change. In the years to come, cities must take action to reduce GHG emissions and prepare for climate change. Reliable GHG emissions data is key to guiding the planning of effective city-level climate action.
This training covers how to identify the sources of greenhouse gases in a city, collect data, and measure emissions. GHG emissions inventories are critical in helping a city determine the best opportunities for reducing emissions and serve as a benchmark for tracking progress over time.
The Urban Greenhouse Gas Inventory Specialist Exam Prep Training was prepared by Krishnaji Pawar, CEO and founder of Beyond Smart Cities.
City Climate Planner Certificate Program
To help build capacity in local-level climate planning, the World Bank and global partners developed the City Climate Planner (CCP) Certificate Program, a training and professional certificate programme that aims to increase the global talent base of climate planning professionals.
The first certificate to be developed is focused on GHG emission inventories, as they are seen as a key building block in the development of quality climate action plans.
The result is training on the latest internationally accepted standard for GHG inventories, a rigorous certificate exam that allows candidates to demonstrate mastery of the content, and access to professional networks that support this work. In the future, additional content areas and certificates that address other components of climate action planning will be created.
The World Bank, C40, World Resources Institute, and ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability created the City Climate Planner (CCP) Certificate Program to teach and certify climate planning professionals worldwide.
GHG emission inventories are essential to good climate action plans, hence the first certificate focuses on these.The outcome is a training on the newest worldwide GHG inventory standard, a demanding certificate exam, and access to professional networks that support this activity.
