Are you a training provider looking to grow your technical training course offerings quickly, professionally and with proven industry impact? 

If so, we offer for purchase our extensive range of course packages, which include all the course materials required to enable training providers, further & higher educational institutions and employers, deliver industry-leading training courses in Metallurgy, Materials Science & Engineering, Welding Technology & Quality Management.

COURSE PACKAGE OVERVIEW

Studying Physical Metallurgy & Crystalline Structure is essential for understanding the properties and behaviour of metals and alloys, which are fundamental to industries like aerospace, power generation, automotive, construction and electronics. It helps engineers and scientists develop stronger, more durable and more efficient materials by analysing phase transformations and microstructures.

The course is focussed on providing practical, work-place ready skills that employers and industry require, but that many academic programmes do not provide.

The course is ideal for candidates at all levels, including those new to Metallurgy, as no specific qualification entry requirements are required. 

A complete list of topics covered on the course is shown further down the page under the heading: 'COURSE CONTENT.'

Total estimated time to deliver the training 15 hours.
