Services and Support

Training

We prefer that our users have unrestricted access to much of our equipment, but you must be trained.

There are different levels of training and support.

We regularly hold free small group training or refresher sessions on our instruments. Details of these can be found on our facility booking system.

Training is offered on an individual (pay for equipment time only) or group (free) basis depending on interest. It generally takes the following format:

  • general introduction to the facility/equipment - 30 mins, free
  • equipment induction level 1. Introduction into all/specific piece of equipment, including health and safety - 1 to 2 hours
  • equipment induction level 2. Follow-up to level 1, you take the lead! - 1 to 2 hours
  • data storage, processing and software training - as required

Just contact us to discuss your training requirements.

Data storage

Any data collected by our users is the responsibility of individual researchers or groups.
