IPWEA-QNT, in collaboration with Danley, we are pleased to offer a workshop on Concrete Pathway Design ‘based on relevant industry guidelines and standards.

The course will provide designers and practitioners with information to appropriately design, construct and maintain concrete pathways and cycleways, through the knowledge and guidance provided by experienced industry design professionals. 

This course is identified as advanced training with attendee numbers limited to provide the best learning environment, encouraging discussion and engagement. It is not a prerequisite for attendees to have completed the Level 1 & 2 courses, however attendees should have a existing understanding and experience with Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC). Registration for the Level 3 course includes attendance of the Type A, B & D sediment basin design course (day 3).

Attendees will gain knowledge and skills to develop and/or assess an ESC plan against the requirements of the IECA 2008 “Best Practice Erosion and Sediment Control” document and its revised appendices..

This course has been developed to support the finalised Appendix B (IECA, 2018) document and updated State Planning Policy (Qld). Attendees will gain an in-depth understanding of key design and operational parameters. The course will also provide guidance on construction and operation of Type A, B & D sediment basins, building on performance assessment and troubleshooting tools provided in the Appendix B document.

Each attendee will be supplied with a jar testing kit to assist in selection and use of coagulants and flocculants. In addition, attendees will be provided with a sediment basin sizing tool to assist in basin design tasks. Content and discussion during the course will include expert experience to assist designers and operators in improving design and effectiveness of sediment basins whilst reducing risk and cost.

This one-day workshop will provide a practical overview of the new standards, the key changes in TTM practice, and other key elements that must be applied to achieve compliance. 

IPWEA-QNT in conjunction with Legaleze Training, is offering a brief 2 hour overview of contract law and contracting basics. Attendees will build confidence in dealing with contracts, gain an understanding of how they are formed, why they are important and various forms of contracts.

To assist with the implementation of these guidelines, a training program has been developed that provides key stakeholders with the relevant knowledge and skills to apply the strategies embedded in the document in a practical and consistent way.

IPWEA-QNT in conjunction with Legaleze Training, is offering an introductory level negotiation course for those involved in contracts negotiation or the negotiation of disputes. Attendees will build a knowledge of the theory of good negotiation, gain an insight into their own style and learn the common pitfalls of poor negotiators as well as the key skills of great negotiators. This course is a life skill as well as a workplace skill.

This workshop presents an overview of the fourth edition (2016) of QUDM. Discussion is provided on each chapter, and includes specific dialog on updates from the previous edition (2013) of QUDM.
