Online Training Courses

 

IAIA is proud to debut its newest training opportunity, Online Training Courses, for people working in environmental, social, or health impact assessment or related fields.

While IAIA has a rich history of offering in-person training courses on a variety of impact assessment topics as part of its annual conference, we have successfully transitioned these courses into an online format. Instruction is broken down into smaller segments better suited for online learning and typically spans two to three weeks.

Our Online Training Courses have been well-received by a diverse community of learners, including IAIA members and non-members. Please note that IAIA members enjoy special pricing discounts. Upon successful course completion, all participants will receive certificates to recognize their achievement.
