Seismograph Operators Certificate Program

The ISEE Seismograph Operators Certificate Program is an expert-led training designed to enhance understanding and compliance in seismographs. Developed and supported by the ISEE Seismograph Section, the training focuses on accurate monitoring of ground vibration and air overpressure in blasting operations, making it a valuable opportunity for professionals across the blasting, construction, mining, and regulatory sectors.

  • Expert instruction from experienced industry professionals
  • Training in seismograph setup, data recording, maintenance, and troubleshooting
  • Review of regulations and industry best practices to ensure compliance
  • ISEE Certificate of Completion issued upon successful assessment

Provide excellence in seismograph monitoring practices within the explosives industry by training operators in best practices for deployment and set up, measurement, analysis of ground vibrations and air overpressures, as well as monitoring report preparation.

The program is designed and presented by renowned monitoring industry leaders demonstrating seismograph use to ensure accurate and representative measurements to evaluate blast performance and meet regulated compliance limits. The 3-hour training concludes with a 30-minute test. Certificates of completion are awarded to those achieving a 75% or better passing score.

The Program will provide you with the knowledge and skills to make sure blast monitoring is performed to the highest industry standards as endorsed by the ISEE. As an operator you have the unique opportunity to assist blasters with off-site measurements used as a guide to modify blast designs and achieve performance goals. Just as important, you serve the community near blasting operaLons assuring property owners that blasting is conducted in a safe and prudent manner in compliance with stringent regulated limits placed on ground vibrations and air-borne sound pressures.

This program takes place during the ISEE 52nd Annual Conference in Reno, Nevada, US.
