Nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains is a charming little mountain village named Banff. Just a 90 minute scenic drive or commuter shuttle from Calgary
International Airport, Banff is a perfect setting to learn, enhance and fine-tune your numerical modeling skills under the personal guidance of GEO-SLOPE personnel.
The annual workshop has become a very popular event and has sold out well in advance of the workshop dates for the past four years. Many clients have returned to the
workshop year after year to continually enhance their modeling skills and to experiment with new types of analyses.
Once again we have expanded the workshop to include an optional 4th day (October 22nd). The format of this day is flexible and allows participants to choose from a
series of concurrent specialized sessions on various topics.
