Artel has tripled the number of pipetting technique seminars offered in 2009 in response to growing demand for training from laboratories.
The company has expanded its 2009 schedule of Pipette Quality Management Certification seminars, which will include six training classes throughout the year.
At Pittcon 2009 in Chicago, IL, 9-13 March 2009, visitors to the Artel booth can register for upcoming training seminars and discuss liquid-handling issues with Artel executives.
Artel's Pipette Quality Management Certification programme is conducted in two-day hands-on seminars at the company's headquarters in Westbrook, Maine.
It is designed for laboratory personnel who use pipettes daily and are facing heightened regulatory compliance, working to improve internal processes for managing pipettes, or establishing an internal pipette quality assurance programme.
Attendees must pass written and practical exams to receive certification.
The seminar helps labs enhance productivity and efficiency in their liquid-handling quality assurance systems.
It covers such topics as regulation and compliance, pipette repair and maintenance, calibration technologies, consultation on implementing a quality assurance programme, and single and multichannel pipetting technique certification.
