About Quilty Engineering Hub
Civil Engineering Education and Capacity Building
Quilty Engineering Hub helps civil engineers and civil designers build the practical capability and confidence needed to make better engineering decisions.
Founded by Sean and Ashleigh Quilty, QEH was created to bridge the gap between learning engineering theory and knowing how to apply it effectively on real projects.
3,000+ professionals trained across every Australian state and territory
Why QEH?
QEH combines first-principles engineering, Australian standards and guidelines, worked calculations and realistic project scenarios to help bridge the gap between technical theory and project delivery.
Our focus is not simply on completing a calculation. We help participants understand why they are making engineering decisions, apply sound judgement and confidently support their designs.
