UNEP Finance Initiative · Geneva, Switzerland
Climate risk taught inside the UN's own partnership with the banking industry — the body that convened the original TCFD banking pilots. Three tutor-led weeks on physical and transition risk, scenario analysis and the ISSB/TCFD disclosure architecture, taught by practitioners like David Carlin and run in English, Spanish and French. A UNEP FI certificate rather than a designation with an exam register — the GARP SCR's shorter, more applied cousin, priced for bank training budgets.
USD 1,400 for staff of large/medium financial institutions; USD 1,200 small institutions; USD 900 UNEP FI members; 5% group discount for 3+. Three weeks, ~2 hours/day; 2026 cohorts in English (April, October), Spanish and French (October-November).
Fees and deadlines change every year: always confirm them on the official page before applying.
