• 20+ units to complete consecutively via the AWS learning platform,
• The course includes 4+ hours of training recordings, across 2 parts,
• Pre-and-post-course materials to go through via this learning platform,

What’s included:

The HEC-RAS Training Series is designed to be taken individually. Each course is highly practical and hands-on ie; not simply a PowerPoint of lectures.

To provide the best desired learning outcomes, setup in a quiet space with dual monitors (ie one screen with the session and the other with the software/exercise that attendees can work on simultaneously). The courses are not designed for a board-room setup.

• x2, 2-hour sessions and the recordings to view as many times as required in a month;
• Signup for the entire series and you will have 4 months of access to all the courses;
• Ability to ask questions to the presenters through the learning platform;
• PDF manual of the course. The manual is recommended for ongoing use;
• Working models, downloaded from the learning platform before starting the course;
• Exercises / homework to complete between sessions;
• Pre-reading and viewing materials;
• Ability to access all the online course materials for a month. The pre-readings and manual are available for ongoing learning;
• Attendees earn 4 CPD hours/points (ie with Engineers Australia), 40+ hours for the Series.

Requirements:

A good internet connection and the latest version of HEC-RAS. Please note: HEC-RAS Version 5.0.4 and newer will only run on 64-bit Windows operating Systems (including 64-bit versions of Window 7, 8.0, 8.1 and 10).
