VolkerStevin is set to offer expertise on Flood and Coastal Engineering courses under its new partnership with Brunel University's Centre for Flood Risk and Resilience.

The firm will work alongside other partners, including the Environment Agency, HR Wallingford, Jacobs and CIWEM to co-create STEM learning material, alongside a range of accredited online CPD modules, to complete the skills pipeline that the Centre plans to offer.

The Centre's ambition is to develop learning that delivers resilience awareness, creating a skills capacity roadmap for flood control methods, to shape and deliver the education solutions needed.

The modules developed draw from the expertise of their partners and from Flood and Coastal Engineering undergraduate and post graduate programmes offered at Brunel University London in collaboration with the Environmental Agency and HR Wallingford.

Eddie Tattersall, VolkerStevin Business Development Director, said: "We are delighted to be involved with the Centre for Flood Risk and Resilience and look forward to our partnership going forward. Hopefully VolkerStevin will be able to offer vital expertise and knowledge that can assist in the development of future Flood and Coastal Engineering courses."
