Who should attend?
Attendees should have a basic grasp of microbiology theory but only limited or no practical experience. This course is ideal for new lab technicians, graduates, apprentices, and anyone new to the microbiology laboratory environment, as well as managers, production, engineering and QA staff wanting to understand the basics of microbiology laboratory practice.
Delegates who also need a basic understanding of microbiology theory can join our “Microbiology for Non-Microbiologists” which runs the day before this event. Discounts apply for joining both courses.
