Universal laboratory-based, hands-on training courses.
Our hands-on courses combine 50% theory with 50% practical exercises in the laboratory. A maximum of 5 delegates can attend to ensure the needs of every individual are met and half of your time will be spent in the laboratory.
- Hands-on gas chromatography training courses
- Hands-on liquid chromatography training courses
- Hands-on spectroscopy training courses
You can attend individual hands-on courses and combine courses to meet your exact requirements, allowing you to bridge the gaps in knowledge you want to fill. See the full range of hands-on courses below. These courses are available as scheduled courses as well as being taught both onsite and offsite, tailored and bespoke.
CPD approval
Many of our hands-on courses have been approved by the Royal Society of Chemistry for purposes of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) - look for the RSC logo on each individual course page.
