An Intensive 5-day Training Course
EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)
Embedded Emissions, Compliance and Carbon Cost Management
INTRODUCTION
This EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) training course develops the management capabilities required to assess exposure to the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism. Participants will learn how to identify covered trade flows, interpret embedded-emissions information and evaluate potential carbon costs.
