Since the beginning of its activity, EUCENTRE aims to promote and support training and research in the field of seismic risk reduction, through various actions, including the training of operators with strong scientific and professional skills in the field of earthquake engineering. The training topics include seismology, geology, geotechnics, behaviour of materials and structures, structural analysis, design of new structures, assessment and retrofitting of existing structures, assessment and drafting of emergency and civil protection plans, even in emergency scenarios. To that end, EUCENTRE organizes 8-hour short courses and seminars.
\nIn particular, these courses are addressed to practitioners, technicians and public servants operating in the construction and planning sector who are interested in learning more about the issues and problems related to the behaviour of structures in seismic areas, as well as acquiring the necessary tools to design and assess these structures. The training activities are also addressed to the public administrations interested in investigating the issues of emergency planning.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
