Online Training: Geological Hazards: Their Occurrence, Monitoring and Mitigation - Geohazards in Chalk Terrains

The event titled Online Training: Geological Hazards: Their Occurrence, Monitoring and Mitigation - Geohazards in Chalk Terrains aims to equip participants with the necessary expertise to understand and manage geohazards effectively. It emphasizes the importance of integrating various fields such as engineering geology, hydrogeology, geotechnical engineering, risk management, communication, and planning. The training will provide insights into how geoscientists can maintain a focus on the societal implications of their work, particularly the effective management and mitigation of the consequences of geohazards. The course will help engineering geologists better communicate issues related to geohazards in the UK to clients and the broader public, addressing the need for a comprehensive understanding of geohazards within a social context.Additionally, the Geological Society of America (GSA) members are offered a generous discount of 40% off the Non-Fellow rate, which requires a discount code at the time of registration. The Society also provides limited concessionary rates for individuals facing financial hardship. However, it is important to note that the Geological Society reserves the right to postpone or cancel the training course if there is low interest, in which case full refunds for registration fees will be issued.
