Welcome to London! EAGE is pleased to invite you to visit London for our Education Days London 2018 2 E D U C AT I O N D AY S L O N D O N 2 0 1 8
Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the Board of the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE), I am pleased to introduce our multiple short course programme ‘Education Days London 2018’, which will take place on 19-23 March 2018 in London, United Kingdom. The event consists of multiple one-day and two-day short courses delivered by distinguished geoscientists and professionals. The courses are carefully selected to ensure a consistent programme with appeal to a broad geoscience and engineering audience. Multiple courses and topics are offered during the week, thus insuring that all attendees can customize an educational programme appropriate to their own needs and interests. Education Days is an ideal platform to increase knowledge and awareness of new methodology for geoscience specialists. These short courses do not only reflect the latest scientific developments in geosciences, but also demonstrate applications of these theories to real-life problems. This year the event will be held at the Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5, which is accessible for all participants traveling from central London or any London Airport. Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5 is ideally located close to the major motorways – M4, M25, M40 – providing easy access from all directions. The Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5 is located within Heathrow Airport’s area, and has local tourist attractions such as Windsor and its historic Castle, Henley and the theme parks at Legoland and Thorpe Park. For concert enthusiasts, the Wembley Arena is within easy reach. Special registration conditions are available for EAGE and PESGB members. I strongly encourage you to participate in one or more short courses during the EAGE Education Days in London. I am sure that you will be positively surprised by the high quality and professionalism of the courses. Jorg Herwanger I Education Officer (EAGE Board) E D U C AT I O N D AY S L O N D O N 2 0 1 8 3
