Location

Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City

Following the success of 04 training courses on ETS and the carbon market held in March and May, which engaged participants from ministries, a number of management agencies at all levels, big emitters, business associations and media, the upcoming training will take place in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City this December, specifically focus on large emitters from the steel, cement, and thermal power industries. This targeted approach aims to enhance the readiness of key sectors to prepare for the implementation of Vietnam’s ETS.

The 2-day training course on ETS and the carbon market is part of the Southeast Asia Energy Transition Partnership’s (ETP) support aiming to develop the carbon market in Viet Nam in cooperation with the Department of Climate Change (DCC), Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) under the technical assistance (TA) “Emission Trading System (ETS) Piloting and Simulation in Vietnam”.

The main objective of the technical assistance is to develop and organize training courses on ETS and the carbon market, using the ETS simulation tool tailored to the Vietnam context for various stakeholders including policymakers, research institutes, universities, financial institutions, media representatives, and especially big emitters that will be covered under Vietnam’s ETS in the future.

Form of organization: Offline training

Accommodation: Trainees are responsible for their own transportation and accommodation during the training course. Organizers provide buffet lunches at the hotel where the training course is held.

Benefits: Be equipped with knowledge, contribute comments to build a carbon market in Vietnam, and receive a certificate of participation in training courses issued by the Department of Climate Change and ETP.

Required preparation: Laptop, or tablet (for reading documents and participating in simulations).

Important: The training course is completely free. Participation is limited to those that are confirmed by VNEEC.
