We would like to draw your attention to the following opportunities
for further study during 2005 that may be applicable to your area of
profession:

Centre for Groundwater Studies Short Courses 2005

Centre for Groundwater Studies is a non profit groundwater Research
and Education organisation. One of our major contributions as a
research centre is a series of short courses we run throughout the
year designed for a range of Groundwater industry personnel including
professional, technical and community environment groups.
CGS' collaborative approach with industry, government and private
consultants in groundwater research and education provides the
foundations for its short courses. The aim of this short course
program is to improve understanding of groundwater as a key natural
resource, particularly focussing on developing a national awareness
of the environmental impacts of groundwater processes.
Accreditation: A major advantage for attendees at CGS short courses
is that they can be used to gain credits toward postgraduate degrees
at Flinders University, South Australia. (Masters, GradDip, GradCert)

Outlined below are the short courses planned for 2005, with links to
our website containing further information.
