One of the core values and aims of ACLCA is to provide relevant, topical and up-to-date training and professional development to its members, so that individuals within member companies can and will maintain and improve the technical and professional standards and skills of member companies.
ACLCA Qld are running foundation training in 2024 on Environmental Site Assessment geared towards graduates and new entries into the industry and CPD Module Workshops targeted to more experience practitioners. New modules will be introduced in the 2nd half of 2024.
ACLCA is confident that the training covers all major aspects of the contaminated land practice at a level of detail as identified in each module, suitable for practitioners new to the field or refresher for more experience practitioners.
The modules currently include the following topics and are presented by highly experienced practitioners in the field.
Where possible the workshops will be held online and in person.
Registration costs for CPD Module Workshops scheduled after 30th June 2024 will increase. This is the first cost review since the inception of the program in 2017.
