acQuire Learning acQuire Learning – for geoscientists by geoscientists

You can choose to study single units, e.g. ACQ100. The

learning benefi ts become more comprehensive when they

are grouped into courses and you complete all units

of a course. For example, four units form the acQuire

Practitioner (ACQ2000) course. Completing the

acQuire Practitioner course is a prerequisite to

the acQuire Certifi ed Professional - Workfl ow

(ACQ3000) course.

Subsequently, every acQuire Learning course

builds on outcomes from other courses and

forms a pathway that is tailored to your career

and aspirations. Each unit and every course has

assessments that lead to either certifi cations or world-

wide recognised accreditations.

Accreditation Benefi ts

Course accreditations are offered when you complete a set of units with clearly defi ned learning outcomes. By achieving competency in each of the course units, course accreditation is awarded to you in recognition of the level of profi ciency. Within a course, units may be taken in any order as long as profi ciency is achieved within 2 years. Competency in a unit is assessed by our course facilitators either by an online quiz or assignment(s).

On achieving accreditation, you:

• can add the appropriate post-nominal letters of the course to your name and CV*.

• will receive the acQuire course accreditation card, valid for 2 years.

• will receive a course completion certifi cate.

with the most effi cient equipment, systems and processes. acQuire Learning is a contribution to the awareness and application of best practice (equipment, systems

and processes). As acQuire software is the tool of choice for valid data storage and retrieval, your staff learns to improve workfl ows which are closely aligned with

industry reporting codes (e.g. JORC 2012, CIM).

Individual pathway accreditation can lead to a rewarding career
