The next chapter of ICGSM

Knowledge Beyond Borders.
Learning Beyond Events.

An international initiative connecting expertise, education and innovation in geotechnical and structural monitoring.

Learn. Connect. Monitor Better.

Built on the ICGSM experience

More Than a Decade.
Knowledge. Innovation. Connections.

From an international course
to a year-round Academy.

ICGSM Academy is an international education and training initiative focused on geotechnical and structural monitoring across built and natural environments.

Powered by NHAZCA, the Academy builds on the experience and community of the International Course on Geotechnical and Structural Monitoring – ICGSM, creating new opportunities for professional education, technical exchange and knowledge sharing.

The course is where the ICGSM community comes together. The Academy carries that experience forward, extending technical exchange and learning beyond the event, throughout the year.

Our vision

Three Principles Shaping the Academy

Our mission is to make specialized knowledge more accessible, encourage continuous learning and create new opportunities for collaboration throughout the year.

Accessible Knowledge

Expert knowledge should know no boundaries.

Making specialized education more accessible, regardless of geographical location or the ability to attend in-person events. Bringing learning opportunities closer to professionals worldwide.

A Global Knowledge Hub

One place to discover, learn and share.

Creating a common space for technical knowledge, practical experience, case studies, emerging technologies and real-world applications in geotechnical and structural monitoring.

Connecting People

Bridging research, technology and practice.

Bringing together researchers, educators, engineering professionals and technology providers to exchange expertise, share experiences and foster meaningful collaboration.

What’s coming

One International Course.
A World of Learning Around It.

The International Course on Geotechnical and Structural Monitoring is the centre of the ICGSM experience. The Academy is developing new ways to learn, meet and exchange knowledge around it.

At the heart of the Academy

International Course on Geotechnical and Structural Monitoring

In-person course Exhibition

Expert teaching, direct exchange with exhibitors and the monitoring community together in person.

Future editions will take the ICGSM experience across continents.

Webinars

Focused conversations that keep technical exchange moving between editions.

Masterclasses

A closer look at specialist topics, methods and monitoring practice.

One-Day Events

Local meeting points for concentrated learning and discussion.

Field Trips

Take the discussion to real sites and see monitoring in context.

Technology Training

Explore instruments, technologies and practical workflows with the people behind them.

Real-Scale Lab Experiences

Explore monitoring methods through hands-on work on real-scale experimental setups.

New initiatives will be introduced progressively. Formats and locations will be announced as they take shape.

Our community

Meet at ICGSM.
Keep the Conversation Going.

The course brings us together.
The Academy keeps us connected.

A question after a lecture. A conversation at an exhibitor’s stand. A discussion in front of an instrument in the field. These are part of the ICGSM experience — and often where new ideas begin.

ICGSM Academy is being built to keep those exchanges alive between editions, connecting the people who study monitoring, develop its technologies and use them on real projects.

Have an experience, a technical question or a case study to share? Bring it to the ICGSM community.

Stay connected

This Is Just the Beginning.

Learn. Connect. Monitor Better.

A new chapter of learning, knowledge sharing and international collaboration is taking shape.
