The Imperial Corporate Training Institute offers Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) for Non-Technical Professionals Training Course. CCS is no longer just for scientists and Engineers but has become part of a company’s strategic business focus for its executives, managers, policy makers and commercial teams in the Power, Utilities, Energy-Intensive and Financial and Infrastructure Development Industries. The CCS for Non-Technical Professionals Training Course will help connect the ambition of Climate Change with the commercial decision-making, regulatory requirements and long term planning process of a business. The emphasis of this training programme is that CCS is not solely a technical solution, but rather a business-enabled approach to the overall emissions reduction targets of the world.
The focus of this particular CCS Training Programme is on the basic concepts of carbon capture and the technologies used to store carbon and understand the awareness of CCUS and fundamentals of decarbonisation; while being expressed through Corporate Strategy, Risk Management, Market Positioning and Stakeholder Engagement Languages. This programme will give participants a clear understanding of how CCS aligns with their Organisation’s Sustainable Goals, ESG Commitments and Energy Transition Roadmaps, without requiring prior technical knowledge in Engineering or the CCS Process. The CCS Training Programme is designed to help Senior Leaders and Corporate Teams develop confidence in their ability to participate in discussions related to CCS projects, recognise and evaluate potential opportunities, establish sound decision-making processes related to CCS, and to align CCS Programs with other Power and Utility Corporates’ Business Goals.
