Emissions Inventories (EMIS)

The Emissions Inventories curriculum is intended for learners who develop emissions inventories for various purposes.

In the left column, you’ll find entire e-learning courses. The right column provides the content of those same courses arranged by learning objective, for learners wanting to customize their learning plan or looking for more targeted training content. (It should be noted that training material is not yet available for all learning objectives.)
eLearning Courses

After completion of this course, learners will be able to explain the fundamental aspects of emissions inventories.
