Training and continued education is critically important to engineers and allied professionals working in the construction industry. This is particularly so in the field of tunnelling, which is fast-changing and operating in a high-risk environment. With this in mind, the Tunnelling and Underground Construction Society (Singapore) is organising a series of training courses to meet the professional development needs of its members and the industry. This is a course that all professionals engaged in tunnelling and associated industries should attend at some time, irrespective of the current stage of their career. The course is delivered by practitioners from the industry with many years of experience.
