Climate Change and Carbon Management Scholarship

Build a greener future with a fully-funded CPD scholarship in Climate Change and Carbon Management.

The global climate change crisis affects all of us now and generations to come. The built environment alone accounts for approximately 39% of global carbon emissions. Better understanding of the built environment, life cycles and processes is critical in allowing us to adapt to changes and increasing extreme climate conditions.

Being able to understand, analyse and improve your organisation’s net zero carbon policies and operational practices will give you, and your employer, the edge in ensuring a greener future in the construction or related industries.

By developing a better understanding and awareness of the impacts of climate change in the urban and built environment you can develop the tools needed to lead your organisation’s journey towards a net zero future.
