The requirement spans several programmes
A team needs the carbon measurement content, part of the reporting material and the supplier data section, but not three full courses. We build the combination.
// CER Academy
Custom programmes
Where no existing programme fits the requirement, CER Academy builds one, from a single targeted session to a multi-module capability programme delivered over months.
// When this applies
Situations that call for a custom programme
The audience is mixed
Finance, procurement and operations in the same room, starting from different baselines. A single standard course pitches wrong for at least two of them.
The content does not exist yet
A sector-specific requirement, an internal methodology, or a newly applicable regulation that no off-the-shelf programme covers.
Training follows an engagement
CER has built a process (an inventory, a risk framework, a procurement approach) and the organisation now needs to be able to run it without us.
// Approach
How a custom programme is built
- Capability gap assessment: what people can do now against what they need to do
- Learning objective definition, written as demonstrable outcomes
- Module design, reusing existing CER material where it fits
- Development of new content where it does not
- Exercise design using your own data where confidentiality allows
- Delivery, in person, virtually or blended across sessions
- Outcome review against the original objectives
// Scope
What can be built on
Custom programmes draw on the same technical base as CER’s scheduled courses and advisory work:
- Carbon measurement and greenhouse gas standards
- ESG strategy, materiality and reporting
- ESG and climate risk management
- Green finance and financed emissions
- Sustainable procurement and supply chain
- Life cycle assessment
- Governance, controls and assurance readiness

Discuss a custom programme
Describe the capability gap rather than the course you think you need. We will propose a programme, and will say so if an existing course already covers it.
Or start from an existing programme
Most custom programmes begin as an adaptation of a scheduled course rather than a blank page.
