    • OSeMOSYS - Bronze Proficiency Badge

      The badge system provides a consistent way to recognise modelling expertise across different organisations and tools, creating a clear path for professionals to develop their skills and advance their careers in energy and resource modelling. By encouraging ongoing learning and recognizing achievements, it helps build a vibrant community of practice in energy system modelling. The framework is designed to be flexible, accommodating various modelling approaches while promoting awareness of capacity-building opportunities through CCG's Energy Modelling Platform events, and similar programs. This structure not only standardises skill recognition but also connects modellers to a broader professional network, fostering knowledge sharing and professional development in the field of energy and resource system modelling. The badge available in this course is the OSeMOSYS - Bronze Proficiency Badge
