What Will You Learn? 

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a comprehensive tool for measuring the environmental impacts associated with all stages of a product’s life—from raw material extraction through production, use, and disposal. Combining quantitative data from multiple sources, LCA identifies and evaluates potential environmental effects of various activities. The primary goal is to help businesses reduce environmental impact and enhance sustainability performance. 

This course provides an overview of ISO 14040 and ISO 14044, international standards that guide environmental management through LCA. You will gain deep insights into LCA principles and methodologies, learn to evaluate environmental impacts throughout a product or process life cycle, and use this information to uncover improvement opportunities. Key aspects covered include data collection, analysis, interpretation, and result communication.
