Learning Pathways
Start with Carbon Accounting.
Build from there.
CTI's professional courses are modular. Complete relevant learning once, then build broader carbon-management or climate-disclosure capability without unnecessarily repeating content.
For many participants, Carbon Accounting is the recommended starting point. If you already know which broader program you want to complete, you can enrol in that full program and begin with the next available shared Carbon Accounting intake.
Standalone Carbon Offsetting is the exception. It is a separate 4-unit course with commencement arrangements confirmed separately.
