Online Training

AAPG online certificate courses are designed to equip earth scientists with knowledge to enable them to take the lead in integrated energy projects and programs. This is the equivalent of a semester-long graduate-level course, and you will be expected to read, analyze, synthesize information, and conduct research. You will write four brief papers, which includes a final project. Certificate Courses can be started at any time and are 4 weeks long. Upon successful completion of the course you will receive a certificate. If you are seeking a less intensive experience, please investigate our e-symposia courses.

One-hour interactive instruction on a variety of vital and cutting-edge topics. Initially given as a live events, e-Symposia are subsequently archived as digital files so others can benefit from the training even if they weren't able to attend the live event. All participants receive one day's worth of independent study materials. If CEU credit is desired, students write responses to brief questions and submit their work to AAPG.

AAPG traditional online courses vary in length from a few days to a full semester. Interaction with instructor is included, and daily or weekly assignments may be included as well.
