About the course

This hands-on course applies to users of SPECPlus on S8 WDXRF spectrometers. The training presents the theoretical fundamentals and preparation techniques as well as the methods in quantitative element analysis. The main focus is on performing X-ray fluorescence using the SPECPlus software package.

Attendance Fee

The course fee is $3,500 USD per person. 

Class Size

Because our courses are interactive and learner-oriented, we limit class size to a minimum of three and a maximum of six. Early enrollment is encouraged as registrations are accepted on a first-come/first-serve basis.

**Each participant will be provided with class materials and lunch daily. We have computers on-site, but it is encouraged to bring a laptop. It is highly recommended to fly into Madison (MSN) on Sunday afternoon/evening and fly out late Wednesday evening or Thursday morning to be able to attend the full course.
