ISRIC’s Training & Education Programme serves the international community with a wide array of courses and lectures on global soils, soil and terrain classification, soil mapping and soil information systems, as well as on the use and importance of soil information for the sustainable management of planet Earth.

ISRIC has a long-standing tradition in teaching about Soils of the World, especially in relation to the World Soil Museum where guided tours are provided on request.

Courses and lectures are given on request and can be given in Wageningen or with the local host. Courses can be tailored to specific user needs. We provide courses at introductory and advanced level, aiming at researchers as well as project managers and users of soil information. Reduced rates apply to participants from strategic collaborative institutions and non-OECD countries
