This is a compact but intensive course targeted at Environment Agency Geoscience staff who need to grasp the essential methods and concepts in borehole design, construction and management within a short time as part of a Continuous Professional Development programme.

The main objectives are as follows: • To produce engaging and graphical training material that gives a fundamental understanding of borehole design, construction and management in different geological environments, including associated risk assessment • To produce and deliver a training course in a blended learning format. • To provide engaging post-course material that staff can use for self or group study.

This could be in the form of workbooks/guided slide packs across real or hypothetical situations.

The material will highlight how an understanding of the subsurface is critical to the successful completion of boreholes for varied purposes • To train staff in understanding drilling contracts, bills of quantities, economics of borehole design to aid their development and competence in this aspect of their regulatory role
