About This Training

The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) represents a transformative shift in global trade, aligning international commerce with the EU’s ambitious climate goals. Starting in 2026, CBAM will impose a carbon price on certain imports based on the emissions generated during their production.  For businesses with global supply chains, CBAM is more than a regulatory requirement—it is a strategic inflection point, presenting both challenges and opportunities. This workshop will provide practical insights and equip you with best practices to navigate this new landscape effectively. 

CBAM entered its transitional phase in October 2023, targeting importers of carbon-intensive products such as steel, cement, aluminum, fertilizers, hydrogen, and electricity. During this phase, businesses must disclose the greenhouse gas emissions from their production processes. Although no financial obligations apply yet, this period is crucial for collecting data, refining methodologies, and preparing for the full mechanism rollout in 2026. 

The evolving CBAM framework demands those businesses—whether EU importers or exporters to the EU—develop reliable systems for assessing and disclosing embedded emissions. These preparations are essential to avoid potential penalties during full enforcement. Starting in 2026, importers will need to purchase CBAM certificates for carbon-intensive imports, introducing new costs and potentially affecting pricing structures and supply chains.  Proactively investing in decarbonization strategies, such as sourcing lower-carbon materials and adopting advanced production technologies, can help businesses gain a competitive edge and reduce future compliance costs. CBAM’s far-reaching implications mean it will impact businesses across industries.  This interactive training course will demystify CBAM, explain its objectives, and outline its impacts, ensuring you are fully prepared for the 2026 deadline. Gain the knowledge and best practices to future-proof your business, minimize risks, and capitalize on opportunities in the emerging CBAM era. 

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand CBAM and Its Implications: Gain a clear understanding of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, its objectives, and its implications for global trade and environmental policies.
  • Develop Compliance Strategies: Learn how to prepare your organization for CBAM requirements by establishing robust systems for emissions tracking, reporting, and compliance to avoid penalties.
  • Analyze Industry-Specific Impacts: Explore case studies to identify the challenges and opportunities presented by CBAM for key industries and trade sectors.
  • Plan Financial and Operational Adaptations: Equip your team to forecast financial obligations, integrate CBAM certificates into cost structures, and plan strategic investments in green technologies.
