Event Summary

This is a concrete essential course that will run over 3 weeks, with a 3.5 hour session on both Tuesdays, 6 and 13 October afternoon from 2pm to 5:30pm with Tuesday, 20 October from 1.30-4.30pm.  We have fine tuned it a bit from our successful first run last year and will break the sessions up a bit with a mid-session break.  The presentations have been improved and the presenters will still be industry experts

Drinks and snacks will be provided after each of these three sessions with a snack/drink break in the middle. The focus is on application so will appeal to contractors and field practitioners.

All of the presenters are well regarded for their skill and expertise in the subjects.

After each session presentation booklets will be emailed to all attendees in PDF format.

Please note - registration is only available for the entire course. Single sessions registrations are not on offer.

On the last day of the Concrete Essentials Course the Queensland Committee of the Concrete Institute of Australia are hosting our annual Project Review seminar on 20 October from 5-8pm.  If you are interested in attending the Project Review note when registering for the 3 day course choose the ticket option that includes the Project Review to be eligible for the discounted registration.

Don’t miss this opportunity!
