This one-day, in person course will showcase the critical need for LCA in assessing the environmental impacts of products and processes as we move towards a future net-zero economy and will provide hands-on training with using the OpenLCA software to calculate specific LCA impact values for individual products and processes, using a composite product example. There will also be good discussion and Q&A opportunities with an expert LCA practitioner from Decerna to ensure all your questions about LCA are fully answered.

- What is LCA? And what isn’t LCA?
- History of LCA and key ISO Standards
- LCA Software and Databases
- Electricity grid impacts, Impact Categories and Climate Change
