Training

Training and courses

Training will help you get the most out of your QSense instrument. Our educational range aims to get you comfortable in the laboratory so that you can discover the many ways QCM-D can bring your research forward. By offering assistance and education on data analysis and data modelling we also help you to make the most of your experiments and your time invested in the laboratory. During the pandemic, we offer our courses online. Check our event page for scheduled courses 

Start-up Training with instrument purchase

In order to guarantee optimal performance from the very beginning, we offer start-up training. Start-up training covers hands-on operation of the instrument as well as data evaluation. The training enables users to exploit the full potential of the QCM-D system. Start-up training is practically handled differently around the globe, either at customer site, at our training center or online. Ask your local sales representative or email support@q-sense.com for more details.
