Training, Research & Mentorship

​Passing down knowledge and expertise is one of the cornerstones of the work we do at ESAK Consulting. With the wealth of experience our team brings to the table, we are committed to investing into our communities, schools, and workplaces. We have been involved in numerous training and mentorship programs for the next generation of soil scientists and environmental consultants, particularly in an age when our society is aware of the shifting social responsibility to protect our natural resources and is keen to be part of that change.

Businesses are increasingly expected to provide employee training that meets (and exceeds) environmental obligations for related activities. We provide education onsite regarding the regulations, policies, and stewardship of resources that can be adapted to suit any audience or level of expertise, to ensure that all stakeholders are committed to the success of the project. We connect offsite with various businesses, government agencies, and educational institutions to provide training and mentorship for up-and-coming skilled professionals in a range of environmental sciences, risk and assessment industries, or government applications.
