Methodology, software & labs

How you'll learn

100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: you progress at your own pace within the intake, so the programme can be combined with work.

Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Excel (financial models), Python (pandas), PLEXOS, Bloomberg Terminal and Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Exercises are based on real procedures for comparative analysis of regulatory frameworks, multi-currency financial models and country risk assessments. Assessment is continuous by module, plus the final Master's Thesis.

Standards covered: Directive (EU) 2023/2413 (RED III), Regulation (EU) 2019/943, US Inflation Reduction Act (2022), UK Energy Act 2023, IFC Performance Standards (2012), Equator Principles (EP4, 2020), Energy Charter Treaty, ILO Convention 169 (indigenous peoples).

Assigned technical tutor:every module ends with a deliverable that your tutor marks individually.
Standards-based learning:guided reading of RED III, the US Inflation Reduction Act, the IFC Performance Standards and the Equator Principles applied to real cases, not as a theoretical annex.
Industry software:Excel (financial models), Python (pandas), PLEXOS, Bloomberg Terminal and Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions.
Master's Thesis with defence:a complete international project plan covering regulation, risk, contracts, finance, E&S and execution strategy, defended before a panel.
Flexible format:100% online, no fixed timetables, compatible with full-time work.
