Short Courses for Industry

The leading place for training in the handling of powders, bulk solids and particulate materials

The Wolfson Centre offers a wide range of short courses designed specifically for engineers involved in the handling and /or designing of equipment for bulk solid materials.

Course content is continually developed to reflect the changes occurring in industry and the needs of the engineer.

Many now offer a practical workshop in the on-site laboratories to complement the theoretical presentations and real-life case studies used.

Courses are to be offered as a mixture of online learning and face to face training.

If the course you are interested in is not shown below, please ask about the possibility of holding an In-Company course.
