Global Stimulus to promote Green Jobs

The global financial crisis, coupled with a long overdue move to a green jobs economy, makes it more important than ever that the Institute trains more people and organizations.  As part of our contribution to stimulate green jobs, the GHG Management Institute is proud to announce that it is now in a financial position to be able to lower the fees for training courses and programs.  Our new tuition fees are up to 30% lower.
