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.
If you would like to be informed of courses as they come up, please request to join our database contact us.
