The courses will be launched in South Africa in conjunction with MANCOSA, The Management College of Southern Africa. The course series will offer participants specialized knowledge in establishing and implementing Corporate Carbon Management in a low-carbon economy. For Corporate leaders, this is an opportunity to understand, manage and embark on deploying strategic mitigation, efficiency and sustainability reporting initiatives. According to Professor Rasool, ”The Green revolution will result in fundamental rebalancing of labor markets. In time, every job will be a green job. Firms that do not subscribe to a green agenda will battle for survival with the real threat of extinction”.
The education and training of professionals from all industries is fundamental to integrating sustainability in organizations. Mrinalini Bagal, Manager at HRCarbon stated, “One of the most important Climate Change challenges is that of capacity building. Educating management leaders in every organization to effectively engage in Corporate Sustainability and Carbon Management initiatives is an imperative that needs to be immediately addressed in all countries.”
HRCarbon’s Climate Change and Corporate Sustainability courses will be open to: private and public corporations;
• Climate Change Management
• Corporate Carbon Management
• Corporate Sustainability
• Carbon Markets
HRCarbon and MANCOSA will deliver the Climate Change course series throughout Southern Africa from February 1, 2010.
