ICAO TRAINAIR PLUS - CORSIA Verification: Virtual Classroom

Introduction

The Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) Verification Course provides training on how to verify CO2 Emissions Reports that have been prepared by aeroplane operators, in accordance with the provisions of the CORSIA Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs).

The Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) Verification Course provides training on how to verify CO2 Emissions Reports that have been prepared by aeroplane operators, in accordance with the provisions of the CORSIA Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs).

Course Content

After successful completion of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Perform the CORSIA monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) requirements as outlined in Annex 16 — Environmental Protection, Volume IV and the Environmental Technical Manual (Doc 9501), Volume IV;
  • Apply the verification requirements as outlined in Annex 16, Volume IV and Doc 9501, Volume IV, including materiality threshold, verification criteria, verification scope and objectives and the Verification Report preparation and submission requirements;
  • Be able to correctly identify the scope of applicability for CORSIA MRV requirements, as well as for CORSIA offsetting requirements;
  • Apply a working knowledge of the fuel use monitoring methods and of the ICAO CORSIA CO2 Estimation & Reporting Tool (CERT) as outlined in Annex 16, Volume IV, and
  • Confirm that claimed emissions reductions from CEF are estimated and reported as outlined in Annex 16, Volume IV and Environmental Technical Manual (Doc 9501), Volume IV.

Who should take this course

Primary target population:

  • Professionals with experience in the verification of CO2 emissions using ISO 14064-3:2006, who want to get involved in the verification of aeroplane operators’ CO Emissions Reports under CORSIA.

Secondary target population:

  • National Accreditation Body (NAB) officials or State Authorities who have a limited accreditation structure in place to support the CORSIA verification process and wish to familiarize themselves with this subject matter;
  • Aeroplane operators who wish to establish procedures for an internal pre-verification of their data before submitting its Emission Report to the verification body, which is a recommended voluntary practice by ICAO. (Reference in Annex 16, Volume IV: Part II, Chapter 2, 2.4 and Appendix 6).

Pre-requisites

Essential:

  1. Working knowledge of ISO 14064-3:2019 is required;
  2. Knowledge of ISO/IEC 17029:2019 and ISO 14065:2020 is desirable.
