Human Health Detailed Quantitative Risk Assessment

An important course for contaminated land professionals developed to provide the understanding and skills necessary to carry out site specific human health risk assessment within the latest UK framework of regulation and guidance.

The key contents of the course include:

The course, endorsed by the Geological Society, will be led by recognised experts in contaminated land investigation, risk assessment and remediation. The course programme includes extensive hands-on exercises using a range of software tools and provides opportunities for sharing experience between industrial, regulatory and consultancy delegates.

Why this course?

In light of the recent changes to contaminated land risk assessment guidance, particularly in the context of human health and ecological risk assessment, we have updated our course specifically to equip you and your colleagues with the latest knowledge in this area, in a short, efficient format.

The course will focus on real-life applications and case-studies, drawing on ESI’s wide ranging experience of providing contaminated land support to developers, lawyers, consultants and regulators including detailed advice to Local Authorities in relation to Part IIA determinations.

ESI Ltd is a leading UK land contamination specialist and training course provider (see our website for more details).
