Garrad Hassan to host a seminar and offer training in conjunction with the CanWEA conference

Garrad Hassan Canada Inc. (GH) will host a seminar and offer two days of professional training in conjunction with the Canadian Wind Energy Association's 23rd Annual Conference and Trade Show. The CanWEA conference will be held in Québec City from Sunday September 30th to Wednesday October 3rd 2007.

The half-day pre-conference seminar will give a brief introduction to Garrad Hassan and will give an overview of: GH Forecaster - a high accuracy short term forecasting service, GH SCADA - a wind farm supervisory control and data acquisition system and GH WindFarmer - wind farm design software. The seminar will be held on Sunday September 30th between 13:00 and 17:00 at the Hilton Québec. Registration is free of charge and booking is online at: www.garradhassan.com/training.

Marc LeBlanc, Director of GH Canada Inc. comments:

"CanWEA has come up with the great idea of having pre-conference events before the show. It is a good opportunity for Garrad Hassan to introduce themselves to people who may not be familiar with all aspects of our work and to give an overview of some of our main products: GH Forecaster, GH SCADA and GH WindFarmer. We look forward to meeting and talking to people involved in the wind energy business."

Garrad Hassan is also offering two professional courses after the CanWEA conference. The Wind Farm Design course will be held on Thursday October 4th. This one-day course uses state of the art design tools to introduce professionals to the principles of wind farm design and optimisation. The GH WindFarmer - Introductory Software Training course can build on the Wind Farm Design course, giving beginners a basic understanding of the software using hands-on methods and examples. This will be held all day on Friday October 5th. Both courses can be booked online at: www.garradhassan.com/training.
