Net-zero Boot Camp - Zer0now

On February 14th and 15th, 2025, Zer0now will be hosting a Net-zero Boot Camp in Fort Collins, Colorado (with a real-time remote option made possible by the Mosaic Room at Colorado State University’s School of Business) to train industry professionals and sustainability-minded students in skills essential to a corporation’s net-zero transition. This Net-zero Boot-camp is a project-based workshop focused on equipping participants with practical skills for developing corporate net-zero strategies. The training will use a combination of lecture, group discussion, and group projects to build expertise in 4 fundamental GHG management skills:

1. Stakeholder bench-marking

2. Greenhouse gas accounting fundamentals

3. Science-based target setting

4. Net-Zero transition plan

If you are a sustainability practitioner or a student interested in pursuing a career in sustainability and looking to upskill in the areas of GHG management and net-zero transition, then this practical, project-based boot-camp is for you. The market value of the services covered in this boot-camp can easily exceed $100,000 for a mid-sized corporation, and your goal as a participant will be to build expertise in the areas of Stakeholder benchmarking, GHG Accounting, Science-based Target Setting, and Net-Zero Transition Planning so that you can unlock this tremendous value for your existing organization, or leverage it to land full time employment in a carbon management or consulting role.
