The GHG Management Institute is a nonprofit organization focused on training and education. To manage climate change, we need to measure our GHG emissions. Action starts with reliable information about our emissions.

The Institute was founded by GHG Experts Network and ClimateCHECK, in partnership with World Resources Institute, Carbon Disclosure Project and Govida eLearning. The Institute is working closely with the World Resources Institute in developing a series of courses related to the GHG Protocol. It is also working with other leading organizations in developing courses and programs.

The Dean of the Institute is Michael Gillenwater, founder of the GHG Experts Network, and co-author of the US EPA and Inter- Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) GHG guidelines. The Managing Director is Gao Pronove, former Coordinator of CC:Train, and co-founder and former Executive Director of the Earth Council eLearning Centre for Sustainable Development. Tom Baumann, co- founder and CEO of ClimateCheck, is the Director of Professional Programs.

The Greenhouse Gas Management Institute is program neutral. We do not promote any specific protocol, standard or program. Our courses cover all relevant protocols, standards, programs, and guidelines. Our focus is on the professionalization of the field of GHG management and accounting.
