The training course Geographic Information System (GIS) Applications in Transportation Systems Engineering / Planning is designed to provide a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of Geographic Information System (GIS) and introduce data collection methods and techniques using Geographic Information System for use in transportation infrastructure and road safety analysis.
Geographic information systems are now actively used by authorities in many developed countries for managing highways and transportation, primarily due to the advantages of decreased costs and improved planning, monitoring, and management of complex systems involved in transportation planning and management, accident analysis, and route planning.
The Geographic Information Infrastructure tools and approaches considerably assist in finding the most strategic investments for maintaining the transportation system in any country at peak performance, optimizing operations, and deciding capacity expansions. The goal of this course is to foster critical spatial thinking and spatial decision-making abilities while also covering the technical components of using a geographic information system .

Social media marketing is one of the most important digital marketing channels. Social media marketing uses social media platforms to create awareness about the product. Digital Marketing uses online and offline channels to promote products to the customer.
We all operate in an increasingly complex commercial and professional environment that requires us to negotiate on a daily basis not only with customers, clients, suppliers and contractors but also with managers, fellow employees, and colleagues within our own organization.
The key to any successful operation lies in the effective management of risks; the ability to seize opportunities, minimize threats, and optimize results. However, risk management is too often treated as a reactive process, or worse, not done at all. In this Operations Risk Management and Mitigation training course, you’ll work through the proactive approach to both sides of risk: threats and opportunities. The approach applies a proven six-step methodology of risk planning through identification, analysis, and control.
Maintaining a high level of productivity in today's successful businesses takes work and continuous learning in a variety of management skills and techniques. To be successful in daily work tasks, knowledge, and skills in management techniques must be learned, practiced, and implemented. People in all types of organizations find themselves needing to find more productive methods of planning work and tasks, setting appropriate goals, using good interpersonal skills, and using effective means of making decisions. A focus on using productive practices allows for effective and efficient management of work and making changes in the organization.
The ASME Plant Inspector Level 1 training course provides the fundamental principles of the inspection, assessment, and management of fixed pressure equipment. The content of the course is delivered in a systematic manner, from the inspection planning process to inspection practices and evaluation of the associated equipment. It is aimed at the upstream and downstream Petrochemical industry but is equally relevant to stakeholders from other sectors that utilize pressure equipment.
This intensive course covers the in-service inspection methodologies and requirements for piping, pressure vessels, and above ground storage tanks.
