The International Energy Agency states that, to meet international climate objectives, we need to reduce net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to below zero worldwide throughout the second half of this century. As a result, many governments and private companies have announced their ambitious GHG reduction targets in recent years, with some aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030. To reach these targets in the medium and long terms, carbon neutrality strategies need to be developed to identify the measures that can be implemented in building portfolios and manufacturing facilities.
This one-day training is intended for managers and professionals wishing to learn about the various strategies that serve to achieve carbon neutrality in their organizations.
Participants learn the various terms and definitions related to carbon neutrality through concrete examples. They also gain an understanding of the initiatives and commitments developed and made by different governments and enterprises. Additionally, they learn to demystify the different approaches used to achieve carbon neutrality or, at least, to significantly reduce GHG emissions.

My background in energy efficiency was primarily at the industrial process level, so I chose to train with CIET to expand my knowledge on building energy systems. I completed the Advanced Course on Existing Building Commissioning (EBCx) as well as the two courses on Building Automation Systems. The new concepts I learned, enhanced by the knowledge of the trainers and the other participants, quickly helped me identify opportunities relating to energy, comfort, and maintenance, most often "low cost" ones.
The Becoming Carbon Neutral course helped frame the opportunities and challenges our customers and our own organization are going to face in becoming carbon neutral. It has served as a foundation, enabling our teams to better support our customers as they move through the process and be part of the solution.
Thanks to the Becoming Carbon Neutral course, I gained a better understanding of how the industry's approach to carbon neutrality is taking significant strides towards standardization, definitions, and requirements. Unfortunately, some requirements are challenging for a small northern jurisdiction like Yukon. But knowing the industry standards was tremendously helpful for figuring out where we are and where we need to be. I was able to identify areas where we already do well, pinpoint gaps, and allocate resources accordingly. The course helped me understand the overall trajectory that our organization should follow to achieve carbon neutrality.
The Foundation Level Exam Prep Course was very insightful, well structured and delivered, and the compilation of resources was extremely helpful. This was an exceptional training experience. Money well spent. I am glad I chose CIET for preparing the NRCan Foundation Level Exam..
We very much appreciate the efforts you have invested in virtual learning and encourage you to maintain this format. This cuts costs and optimizes time for everyone.
