ISO 14067: 2018 Carbon Footprint of Products

Course Description

In this course, participants will learn the process for undertaking a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF). They will also gain direct experience in applying this knowledge through the case study that the course is built around. This will result in a thorough, practical understanding ISO 14067 which will enable participants to tackle the challenges of boundary setting and data gathering, utilize the data to perform a product carbon footprint quantification, and prepare reports that will be ready for 3rd party verification.

Carbon Action are the official training partners of DIN CERTCO, TÜV Rheinland. Upon completing the course, participants receive a Certificate of Completion, which qualifies them to take the official DIN CERTCO TÜV Rheinland examination. Successful candidates achieve the globally recognised title of “PCF Manager” and are awarded the ‘DINplus’ mark, signifying their expertise in product carbon footprinting and adherence to international standards.
