DIPLOMA IN ROCK ENGINEERING
BRIEF SUMMARY
The Diploma program is a global leader, featuring a flexible curriculum designed with our students in mind.
The International Diploma in Rock Engineering (DIR) imparts both theoretical and practical knowledge related to the design and support of stable rock excavations. By comprehending rock properties from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives, it becomes possible to engineer stable excavations in mining, tunnels, and other infrastructure projects.
Upon completion of the diploma, participants will possess an understanding of available support methods and their performance. This knowledge is utilized to select the optimal support required for excavation stability, considering relevant factors such as safety, service life, and cost-effectiveness.
TRAINING MODALITY
The modality presented is the “Virtual-OFFLINE” (Virtual asynchronous); in this you will develop a course every 30 days, which is made up of videos, materials, slides and questions to the speaker. At the end of each course, you must take an exam to pass it and move on to the next course.
You will be assigned the tutoring of a specialist and there will be no limitations in terms of access hours or consultations with the speaker, this promotes that you be trained efficiently. The hours dedicated to each module must be managed assertively to optimize the benefit. You will experience all of the above through our virtual campus, which will also allow us to monitor your progress.

TESTIMONIALS
"It seems to me a fairly complete course with detailed information that is very necessary for its application in engineering works. The interactive way that they apply to the development of the contents is of high quality and commits me to continue attending the topics. I hope that the following courses be the same and give that plus that characterized them in this course to acquire the geotechnical criteria that current works demand. I really liked the didactics of the course. The content of the course contains what I expected. The academic follow-up is better than in a face-to-face course. The CGI virtual platform is very good"

BRIEF SUMMARY
One of the great problems of mining and/or civil works is the stability and design of the support of the excavations that are carried out.
In the course, the specialist will present practical cases to be able to define which will be the most appropriate method or system of fortification and support, according to the characteristics of the problematic area of the work that is defined to be fortified. To define the type of support, empirical methods such as geomechanical classifications will be used, as well as computer-assisted numerical methods. Finally, the operating mechanism and technical specifications of the main supports used in both mining and civil works will be reviewed.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
► Properly select and design supports to be used in excavations.
► They will also have the competence to know the operating mechanism of supports in underground excavations and their design parameters.
BENEFITS
► Valid course to access the international specialization diploma in underground and surface Geomechanics.
► Receive the specialist certification in underground and surface geomechanics.
► Train at the hands of a speaker with extensive experience in the subject.

BRIEF SUMMARY
The workshop course will offer technical support to mine and civil works operators so that they can make appropriate decisions, making use of the appropriate geotechnical information.
It will also provide underground mine operators with the necessary tools to assess the stability conditions of excavations and pillars in underground mines.
The topic of the most used empirical methods in practice to evaluate the complex interaction that exists between the geometry of the excavations and the nature and state of stresses of the rocky environment in which they are located will be developed.
A significant portion of the course will be devoted to the development and analysis of stability issues, for which participants are expected to contribute any issues or concerns they may have in their own operations.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
► Make decisions about estimating the stability of underground excavations and pillars.
► Develop and achieve a good understanding of the relevant field information that is required to make a good stability evaluation.
► Understand the influence rock mechanics has on the stability of planned excavations and the overall design of an underground mine and tunnels.
BENEFITS
► Valid course to access the international specialization diploma in underground and surface Geomechanics.
► Receive the specialist certification in underground and surface geomechanics.
► Train at the hands of a speaker with extensive experience in the subject.
► Receive materials for each unit such as slides, manuals and data that you can keep.
► Being able to make all necessary academic queries directly to the speaker.
► Freedom to access the course on the day and at the time you want, as well as to pause and go back the class as many times as necessary until you fully assimilate the knowledge provided.
► The costs are reduced compared to those of a face-to-face course, since the expenses incurred are lower.
► Access the network of professionals from the various countries of the world. Technicians, university students, engineers, masters, doctors, post doctors and the general public related to the professional field participate in our courses.
► Access the database of the queries and answers of the participants, as well as the technical reports generated in each course.
► Access the database of the queries and responses of the participants, as well as the technical reports generated in each module and the thesis projects.
TRAINING MODALITY
The modality presented is the “Virtual-OFFLINE” (Virtual asynchronous); in this you will develop a course every 30 days, which is made up of videos, materials, slides and questions to the speaker. At the end of each course, you must take an exam to pass it and move on to the next course.
You will be assigned the tutoring of a specialist and there will be no limitations in terms of access hours or consultations with the speaker, this promotes that you be trained efficiently. The hours dedicated to each module must be managed assertively to optimize the benefit. You will experience all of the above through our virtual campus, which will also allow us to monitor your progress.

TESTIMONIALS
"It seems to me a fairly complete course with detailed information that is very necessary for its application in engineering works. The interactive way that they apply to the development of the contents is of high quality and commits me to continue attending the topics. I hope that the following courses be the same and give that plus that characterized them in this course to acquire the geotechnical criteria that current works demand. I really liked the didactics of the course. The content of the course contains what I expected. The academic follow-up is better than in a face-to-face course. The CGI virtual platform is very good"
