With the introduction of Carbon Pricing in Singapore, Taxable and Reportable facilities are required to report their GHG emissions to the National Environment Agency (NEA) annually. To assist these facilities in maintaining competent individuals who can accurately report their GHG emissions, we have launched our GHG Manager training program.
This program adopts a modular approach and is designed to help professionals quantify GHG emissions from emission sources applicable generically across industries.
This course is designed for professionals who seek in-depth understanding of GHG emissions and calculation methodologies
Energy Managers or other professionals responsible for monitoring and reporting GHG emissions
3 days
Module-1: Understanding GHG emissions and its calculation methodologies
►Overview of Climate Change and Global Warming
►Understanding types of Carbon footprint
►Introduction to emission sources and types of Greenhouse gases to be considered
►GHG calculation methodologies including IPCC, UNFCCC, etc.
►Multiple exercises on calculation of GHG emissions
Module-2: Monitoring raw data for GHG emissions
►Identify meters and techniques for raw data monitoring
►Quality management principles to manage raw data
►Exercises to identify monitoring of raw data
Module-3: NEA Reporting framework for Taxable and Reportable facilities
►Introduction to requirements of Carbon Pricing
►Responsibilities of Taxable and Reportable facilities
►Understanding NEA’s Monitoring and Reporting Plan, including walk-through of NEA’s Monitoring template
►Process of GHG verification.
All participants will receive a Certificate of Attendance from SEAS upon completion.

After successful completion of the course, candidates are equipped with the knowledge to conduct GHG emissions computation and GHG accounting. As per the NEA guidelines, the taxable facilities is responsible for appointing its GHG Manager, justifying and providing evidence to NEA that the appointed individual has the required qualifications, knowledge or experience to properly carry out the duties of a GHG Manager. NEA will be the final approving authority on the appointment of a GHG Manager.
Augustine Quek is currently the Director of Sustainability in Technical Services for the Millennium and Copthorne Group (M&C). He drives sustainability efforts, standards and reporting for all properties worldwide within M&C.
Before this he was manager and lead for development and growth at the Singapore Environmental Council (SEC) working on training, standards and certifications to improve environmental and social resilience for Singapore businesses and organizations. Certifications and green labelling products and services is the core competency. His work includes conducting training on basic sustainability concepts for management, workshops and seminars. He also plans, reviews and recommends strategies and frameworks on carbon management and ESG issues for companies.
Earlier, he was a senior fellow and manager at the National University of Singapore (NUS). He coordinated operational affairs in the $20 million NRF-CREATE research effort that examines coupled environmental problems with coupled solutions through modelling and test-bedding at different scales for cities. The programme circular pathways of decarbonisation, such as producing energy and fertilizers from food waste, gasification of biomass for high-value materials and energy security.
As an assistant professor at the University of Nottingham, Ningbo. He has taught degree courses in environmental and chemical engineering. His research in low-carbon and circular technologies, such as pyrolysis and hydrothermal conversion various solid wastes streams into useful materials. These include converting waste rubber tyres into adsorbents; horticultural wastes to biochars, and utilizing incineration bottom ash for land reclamation. In 2010, he won the World Future Foundation best thesis award.
He currently continues to pursue low-carbon, circular concepts in sustainable development from an environmental impacts’ perspective. He believes understanding the environmental impacts of the full life cycle of all human activities is necessary to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
