Already completed CTI Accounting & Offsetting?

You only need the 2 additional strategic learning units.

Participants who have completed CTI's integrated 8-learning-unit Carbon Accounting & Offsetting pathway do not repeat that learning. Your completed learning carries forward, so you progress directly into the 2 additional strategic and organisational implementation units required to complete Strategic Carbon Management.

8 completed + 2 additional = 10 learning units Contact CTI about enrolment in the graduate progression pathway.

How the advanced pathway works

The full Strategic Carbon Management program contains 10 learning units.

The first 8 learning units comprise CTI's integrated Carbon Accounting & Offsetting pathway. The final 2 learning units extend that technical foundation into strategic priorities, systems, governance, implementation and organisational change.

If you are new to organisational greenhouse-gas accounting and prefer a smaller initial commitment, Carbon Accounting remains CTI's recommended foundation for many participants.

Units 1–5
Carbon Accounting Organisational greenhouse-gas accounting foundation.
Units 6–8
Additional Carbon Offsetting Offsets, carbon markets, quality, integrity and appropriate use.
Units 9–10
Strategic Carbon Management Strategy, governance, systems, implementation and organisational change.

Modular progression

A clear pathway from foundation to strategic capability.

CTI's modular structure allows participants to build professional capability progressively without repeating relevant learning already completed.

Carbon Accounting 5 learning units Recommended foundation for many participants
Accounting & Offsetting +3 learning units 8 learning units completed in total
Strategic Carbon Management +2 learning units 10 learning units completed in total

Participants beginning directly with Strategic Carbon Management complete the full 10-learning-unit program. Eligible CTI Carbon Accounting graduates need 5 additional units in total: 3 additional offsetting units followed by 2 strategic units.
