A qualified talent pool is required to increase the scalability and affordability of CCS as a pathway to net zero. Workers who know how to design, construct, operate and maintain CCS infrastructure are needed.

If you have experience or are currently employed in the transportation of gaseous and/or liquid CO2, this overview course will be beneficial to you as you expand your existing skills and knowledge for a career in Canada’s emerging CCS industry.

This course will also be valuable for anyone seeking to better understand the transportation of CO2 and implications for Canada to meet net-zero goals.

You must be a minimum of 18 years of age at the time you start this course. There are no other admission requirements (academic and/or work experience).
