New dates! Hands-on Complete HPLC & LC-MS Training - book now!

Anthias Consulting are pleased to announce a new date for their Hands-on Complete HPLC & LC-MS training course.

The course will take place on 11th - 15th July 2022 hosted by Anthias Consulting's partner Providion, at their technical training facility in Manchester in the UK.

The course is approved by the Royal Society of Chemistry for the purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD), underlining the high-quality standard of the training course materials along with demonstrating continual appraisal and improvement of the course.

The course provides a complete hands-on training solution over 5 days, teaching all the essential theory of liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry, along with hands-on practical elements in the laboratory to practise and reinforce the knowledge. The training is universal, applicable to all makes and models of instrumentation and gradually builds delegates' knowledge through 50% theory and 50% practical exercises on the instruments.

The format of the course continuously builds delegates' knowledge throughout the course, going into a high level of detail on each stage of analysis and the individual instrument components.

Starting with an introduction to the techniques of liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry, the course guides delegates through the function and operation of the instrumentation. Delegates then use this knowledge in the laboratory to create methods and gain experience in adjusting the parameters and seeing the effects, along with analysing the data.

This is followed by the importance of maintenance and recognising signs of when maintenance is required, with practicals carrying out maintenance on a liquid chromatograph and mass spectrometer. The final day looks at how to go about troubleshooting HPLC and LC-MS instruments and what problems can occur, with real problem solving on the instruments and data analysis software.

The practical aspects of the course give users the ideal chance to practice what they are learning with guidance from the course instructor within a small class size, for focused support.

Anthias' successfully ran their Hands-on Complete HPLC & LC-MS course earlier this year in March at Providion. This was the team's first scheduled face-to-face course since the start of the pandemic. Anthias would like to thank their hosting partner Providion for their warm welcome and hospitality. The team received excellent feedback from the course including these comments:

"[I enjoyed] the way Giles was presenting (easy going) but a lot of technical expertise, experience, real examples/life stories. Access to instrument, facilities and people at Providion."  Research Scientist, March 2022.

"The depth of coverage was great for me, going from practically zero. This was really helped by Giles' ease of explanation. The course materials were also fantastic!"  Research Scientist, March 2022.

Providion's modern training facility hosts a suite of instrumentation from multiple manufacturers, providing a great setting for hands-on learning.

The Hands-on Complete HPLC & LC-MS course runs from 11th - 15th July 2022. Places are limited to enable focused support for each delegate – find out more about the course and don’t miss out, book your place now!

Those who are completely new to techniques are advised to first attend the Absolute Basics of HPLC & LC-MS aimed at beginners - view dates and book.
