Learning
ACLCA provide and promote ongoing professional development and funding for industry based research projects
Australian Contaminated Land Consultants Association (ACLCA) is a corporate based professional association established in NSW in 1995. ACLCA is state based, with chapters now also in Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia.
ACLCA NSW runs monthly technical seminars for members only, usually on the last Wednesday of each month, which are free to attend. These seminars are also a great networking opportunity as we serve drinks and finger food prior to the presentations. The seminars are available for members to attend in person or online as webinars.
We also run various half day workshops throughout the year, as well as at least one free social event for members. As a not-for-profit association, we place great importance on offering high quality training opportunities for our members at subsidised rates. Have a look at our 'Training & Events' page to find further information about all of our upcoming events.
Members are reminded that attendance at our training events counts towards CPD hours required by industry accreditation programs, as long as members register online to attend our events. Members are encouraged to keep track of their own attendance at industry events, so please retain a copy of your registration email for your records.
ACLCA NSW members are entitled to discounted rates to attend UTS CSARM short courses, and some other industry training events.
