Training Courses


Training courses

Charles has conducted training courses for many years in a variety of formats. 

In collaboration with Dr. Rick Spencer of Alacritas Consultancy Ltd. two day Short Courses on 'Thin films  -  Vacuum deposition onto rigid & flexible substrates' we run in 2002 & 2003.

In 2004 this short course was incorporated into the first running of the Association of Industrial Metallizers Coaters & Laminators (AIMCAL) European Summer School.
This course was run again in 2006.

In addition Charles has given other short courses for AIMCAL prior to their Fall Conference in the USA.


Customised courses

A number of clients want to have a more customised course presented to a whole team.  In these cases customised courses are available delivered by Charles or again in collaboration with Rick Spencer, depending on duration & content required.
