Early Careers Group Meetup

17 Jul, 2019 @ 2:30 pm - 5:15 pm

The IAQM Early Careers Group meetups provide a forum to learn, practice presentation skills and network with other early-career professionals, in a friendly, supportive and accessible environment.

This series of mid-afternoon events offer a platform for early-career professionals to gain valuable professional development and share experiences with peers in a relaxed and supportive audience, providing an excellent CPD opportunity which you can later use as evidence of development when upgrading from Associate to Member.

The next meetup will be held at Atkins Offices in London, Victoria on Wednesday 17th July and will include a workshop around air quality monitoring.

Monitoring of actual, observed air pollution levels, complements the modelling forecasts that IAQM members use routinely in their assessments of air quality impacts of anthropogenic activity. Measurements of air quality data can generate large amounts of data; turning this into a robust and reliable evidence base required the proper design of the monitoring strategy and the appropriate use of statistical tools to draw out the key features.

Attendees will have a chance to find out how air monitoring developed over the years and what are the opportunities and challenges of using emerging technology to monitor air quality. Join the meeting and don’t miss the opportunity to listen to and network with other professionals.
