Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Accounting Certificate
Hands-on online training in carbon accounting, with two pathways: a for-credit graduate certificate and a non-credit professional certificate for working professionals.
Given the scale and challenges posed by climate change, there is a strong and growing need for professionals with robust skills in tracking, reporting, and managing carbon emissions from companies and organizations. NAU provides one-of-a-kind, hands-on training in carbon accounting, with pathways for both current students and working professionals.
Both pathways cover the same four online courses, taken in sequence: Foundations in GHG Accounting I, Foundations in GHG Accounting II, Value-Chain GHG Accounting, and GHG Mitigation and Management.
