They can be held in your state or a bordering state to minimize travel time and allow the building of relationships with other government agencies and personnel. You can choose from a variety of topics and disciplines or work with us to create a workshop to fit your specific needs.

Multi-Day Practical Workshops

NEEP has developed and deployed multi-day training workshops that provide classroom sessions coupled with practical field exercises.
 

The classroom sessions provide the background information that will be used in the field. The field sessions then apply what is introduced in the classroom providing hands-on training.

  • Environmental Scene Investigation (ESI)
  • Multi Media Sampling Training
  • Prosecutor Training for Attorneys
  • Scenario-based Environmental Compliance and Enforcement Training
  • Regional Environmental Enforcement Association Workshops

The classroom sessions provide the background information that will be used in the field. Field sessions then apply what is introduced in the classroom providing hands-on training. Interaction between the instructors and students and among students is advanced.

  • Interactive roundtable discussions
