Linking Geoscience with Application

The Willis School of Applied Geoscience (WSAG) operates under the umbrella of Applied-Geoscience LLC. With over 35 years of university and industry training experience, Dr. Willis has developed a world-class course catalog that rivals and even exceeds that of many university graduate programs, but with an applied, industry-based focus! These courses are available both as public offerings and in-house training and we offer them in various formats, including in-person, online, and hybrid options. Courses can be customized to fit your company’s specific needs, including course length which typically range from 3–5 full days. Online courses are typically taught in half-day sessions.

For more information, please email info@applied-geoscience.com. Contact us for group discounts for public courses or inquire about in-house courses (in-person or virtual). Join our mailing list (see bottom of page) for occasional updates to our public course offerings.
