Course overview

Physical geology is the branch of geology that studies geologic events and materials that occur today or in the recent past. In contrast, historical geology examines fossil and rock records for evidence of past geologic processes, materials, and life forms. Volcanoes, earthquakes, erosion, weathering, and glaciers are examples of current processes studied by physical geologists. They apply their knowledge of historical geological processes to determine what is causing current geologic processes. Physical Geology online certification is made available by Udemy to candidates who want to study the earth's components, the geological processes that occur beneath and on its surface, and the history and evolution of our planet.

Physical Geology online training comprises 8.5 hours of video content, and two downloadable resources are included. Individuals who complete the course can access the materials indefinitely and print a digital certificate.Physical Geology online classes include the solar system, geological time, inside earth, plate tectonics, weathering, deserts & winds, minerals, and sedimentary rocks.
