The SAS aims to offer a variety of educational opportunities for the public. Our workshops are designed for those who have a little bit of archaeology knowledge, or none at all! They provide an overview of a particular subject within the field, and often focus on archaeological sites and artifacts found in the area where the workshop is being presented.

What happens when emergency services are over an hour away? More remote environments require more specialized skills, equipment, and training.

Key learning concepts include: Planning, prevention, and situational awareness, wound care, and environmental emergencies.
