Instrument Training for Users:

The SSEA Unit provides instrument training to enable researchers to perform their own measurements. To find out the date of the next instrument training session, contact our staff .

Upcoming Courses and Seminars:

The SSEA Unit also arranges specialised courses and workshops, often in partnership with technical experts from our instrument suppliers. Upcoming workshops are shown below:

In many cases these courses are free to staff and students of UNSW, and sometimes other institutions. Numbers are usually limited so early registration is recommended.
