Workshops and virtual retreats
Learn to use The Geochemist's Workbench® like a pro with training from Aqueous Solutions, the people who make the software. Your time is valuable—let us get you up and running quickly!
I have been modeling with GWB for several years now but I always learn something new at the workshops.
– Johan Fourie, Geostratum Groundwater & Geochemistry Consulting
Thank you for the GWB workshop—it was perfect! The tasks made the learning process really easy.
– Yuchen Liu, University of Illinois
I had the best time during the workshop! I am 100% convinced all my models will be done in GWB from now on!
– Thais Lamana, Golder Associates
2024 Virtual Retreats
Immerse yourself with like-minded colleagues from around the world to learn the ins and outs of geochemical modeling at a Virtual Retreat.
Each instructor-led, hands-on retreat spans four half-day sessions and gives you a detailed look at how you can apply the latest modeling techniques in your work.
In 2024, we will offer two retreats: Geochemical Reaction Modeling in the spring, and then in the fall, Reactive Transport Modeling. Whether you're a beginner or expert, don't miss these opportunities to hone your skills!
The short presentations and example exercises really showcased what the software can do and provided us with an opportunity to test drive the software.
– George A., Environmental Engineer, USA
Featured workshop—2024 Chicago Goldschmidt
Heading to the Goldschmidt this year? Don't miss your chance to learn to use the free GWB Community Edition to model speciation in aqueous geochemical systems!
In this in-person, hands-on workshop, we will construct Pourbaix diagrams, model species distributions in natural waters, account for redox disequilibrium, and incorporate the effects of surface complexation.
For details or to register, please visit the workshop webpage.
The best workshop I've ever participated in. The short theoretical introductions and illustrated exercises helped me learn the software in two days.
– Valeria B., Ben-Gurion University of the Negev
