The Institute of Earth Systems is offering a second set of new Continuing Professional Development (CPD) units at Master level, starting in February 2024. The new CPD units form part of the recently launched full-time M.Sc. in Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, which will equip students with the knowledge and expertise they require in order to work in the field of environmental science. The CPD units on offer aim to provide training in monitoring approaches, in handling environmental data and in assessing observed changes with a view to the safe and responsible use of environmental resources
Interested individuals currently in fulltime employment can follow one or more study units as part a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme at their place of work. The content of these new CPD units is designed to keep people already working in this field conversant with technological advances and current thinking in environmental monitoring and assessment. In addition, students who successfully complete a sufficient number of units will be eligible for the award of a Postgraduate Certificate or Diploma.
Online applications are currently open for the following study-units being delivered during the second semester i.e. between February and June 2024:
