Culverts are critical to the performance and resilience of road, rail, mining, municipal, and agricultural infrastructure. When they are poorly designed or inadequately maintained, they can lead to flooding, erosion, asset failure, and significant unplanned costs—risks that are increasing with greater rainfall variability and extreme weather events.

As mining operations continue to face increasing scrutiny over tailings management, the need for safe, sustainable, and well-governed Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) has never been greater. This intensive Master Class is designed to bridge the gap between engineering design, operational excellence, risk management, and regulatory compliance, equipping professionals with the knowledge and practical tools required to manage TSFs throughout their lifecycle. The programme addresses the real-world technical, environmental, governance, and operational challenges that have contributed to major TSF failures globally, while exploring emerging technologies and industry best practices shaping the future of tailings management.
