GGS provides ground gas technical training via a range of webinars, seminars, lunch-time presentations and full-day training events.
We understand that sometimes it is difficult to understand and digest the volume of standards and best practice guidance. That is why we provide a range of training options that distil key points into more easily understandable forms.
Here are just some of the many topics that we cover:

“It truly is an A-Z, leading through ground gas basics which are often overlooked but form the fundamentals on which the assessments are made. Great concept with interaction between all presenters.” Jonathan, Senior Engineer, SANCTUS LTD
“Really enjoyed the day and had a few lightbulb moments!” Mandy, Senior Environmental Protection Officer, East Northants Council
“Very informative and interesting case studies. Good delivery of the presentations and good content. Really enjoyed the Radon talk.” Victoria, Geo-Environmental Engineer, ARUP
“As a regulator, the information provided will be very helpful. Very grateful that I was able to speak to Simon Talbot about a specific case. Simon’s expertise and experience was very helpful in assisting me decide a course of action.” Muttakir Mohammed, Pollution Control Officer, NPTCRC
“Great – excellent hands on course. Good demonstration of installation and verification of ground gas membrane.” Matt, Senior Geo-Environmental Engineer, NHBC
“Very interesting course. It seems that all the attendees are from very reputable companies who focus on the importance of a proper and thorough investigation rather than producing results quickly on behalf of developers. I will certainly be focussing more on the discussion of radon in the reports I review.” Joanne, Graduate Environmental Health Officer, Kirklees Council
“Great knowledge from presenters. Thoroughly enjoyed.” Tyler, Engineer, Groundsafe LTD
“One of the most interesting training courses I have attended.” Jane, Geo-Environmental Consultant, Hydrock
“The A-Z of Ground Gas provides a great insight into all aspects of contaminated land. The material was easily digestible and interesting whether we were learning about different solutions and technologies to deal with contaminated land or how landfill sites are redeveloped into residential or commercial spaces. I found the course extremely educational and thoroughly enjoyed the two days.” Richard, Landfill Technician, Birmingham City Council
