Course description

Emissions Market and Trading Programme - Virtual

This live virtual training course, delivered over four sessions, will provide participants with a comprehensive knowledge of the major carbon emissions trading markets. The course focuses on the practicalities of carbon trading, i.e. what carbon is and how it is traded, but will also provide participants with an understanding of the regulatory framework underpinning the market. The goal is to deliver the broad picture of how carbon trading functions to professionals with various backgrounds. The course takes an in-depth look at the goals of emissions trading, the features of emissions markets, potential price implications of market news, organisations within the market, and the trading tools available.
