Bengaluru, 23rd July 2025: Birla Institute of Management Technology (BIMTECH), a leading AACSB accredited business school in India, is excited to offer a Certificate Programme on Net-Zero and Carbon Ecosystems. Scheduled from 23-24 August 2025, this program is jointly designed with the Hydrocarbon Sector Skill Council (HSSC). Last date to apply is 16th August, 2025.
This forward-thinking program is suitable for mid-level professionals, early-career researchers, and ESG & sustainability practitioners. The course will provide hands-on learning, numerical exercises, networking opportunities, and sessions with industry experts.
Dr. Prabina Rajib, Director, BIMTECH, shared, “India’s energy sector remains the largest contributor towards emissions at 75.66%. This scenario points out that our education system needs to promptly respond to the evolving challenges. Encouragingly, India’s 4th Biennial Update Report (BUR-4) highlighted a 7.93% reduction in GHG emissions in 2020 compared to 2019. India’s commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2070 requires contributions at all levels. Hence, with our certificate course, we are creating environmentally conscious professionals equipped with the knowledge and tools to lead sustainable transformations across sectors.”
As sustainability and climate action take centre stage globally, the program’s cutting-edge curriculum aims to offer a robust understanding of net-zero strategies, carbon neutrality, and sustainable ecosystem management. With its industry-aligned curriculum, the programme seeks to bridge the knowledge gap and empower participants to contribute meaningfully to decarbonisation and green transition efforts.
Inspired by its founders Late Basant Kumar Birla and Sarala Birla, BIMTECH has pioneered innovative programs like PGDM, PGDM-International Business (IB), PGDM-Retail Management (RM), and PGDM-Insurance Business Management (IBM), nurturing individuals into global leaders. BIMTECH is amongst the Ivy League of Top Globally Recognized B-Schools that excels in management education, supported by its globally placed robust alumni network of over 8000 individuals.
The Certificate Programme on Net-Zero and Carbon Ecosystems is a joint initiative by two leading institutions—Birla Institute of Management Technology (BIMTECH) and the Hydrocarbon Sector Skill Council (HSSC). This collaboration brings together BIMTECH’s academic excellence in management and sustainability with HSSC’s industry-driven approach to skill development in the energy and hydrocarbon sector.
This partnership reflects a powerful synergy between academia and industry, aimed at building a future-ready, green-skilled workforce to support India’s 2070 net-zero commitment.
The Salient deliverables from the Certification Programme will be –
– Fundamentals of Net-Zero strategies and carbon ecosystems
– Understanding voluntary vs. mandatory carbon markets (ETS, VCM, PAT, ESCerts)
– Hands-on sessions in firm-level emissions calculation and carbon credit trading
– Frameworks like Kyoto Protocol, Paris Agreement, CORSIA, and more
– Case-based and numerical exercises with real-world applications
