Thanks for 25 Great Years

AESAC is also very grateful for our industry partners who promote our courses and provide our students with their invaluable services, products and specialized knowledge. Over the sixteen years I have been teaching with AESAC these companies and individuals are too numerous to list in a single blog, but I'll try my best to acknowledge as many as I can. Kudos and cheers to: Carolyn Inglis and Mike Chester of Ecolog ERIS for their talks, sample ERIS reports and ongoing support; Justin Clarke of Maxim Environmental and Safety for bringing all sorts of sampling and monitoring equipment to play with; all the reps from AGAT Laboratories and ALS Environmental for their expertise in analytical testing; Mike Slocki of Profile Drilling for his real world take on environmental drilling; Glenn Ferguson of Intrinsik Environmental Sciences for his enlightening information on conducting Risk Assessments; Jacquie Stevens of Willms & Shier and Janet Bobechko of Norton Rose, Fulbright for providing their excellent legal advice for consultants; and Anil Sharma of AKS Geosciences for his informative presentations on geophysical investigations and oil spill response. AESAC is also grateful to all the hotels and conference centres in Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Vancouver, Ottawa, Portage La Prairie, Lindsay and St. John's that have hosted us, fed us, provided accommodations, and tolerated groups of AESAC course attendees trooping through their boiler rooms, common areas and mechanical rooms conducting mock site inspections. Lastly, a big shout-out to all the past trainees, current members, and AESAC members who have obtained Certified Environmental Site Assessor status; for their continued participation and contribution to the association. It's been a great first 25 years, here's to 25 more!
