Training

We blend online, group and one-to-one training so you can get great results on our instruments.

  • Free Online training 

    Our expert staff have developed an online learning environment called MyScope. It’s globally recognised, with about 160,000 visitors each year.

    MyScope is custom-made to train researchers in how to use various types of advanced microscopes. The interactive microscope simulators provide a realistic operating experience. Learn at your own pace the fundamental science of microscopy that can support your research.

  • One-to-one training

    Each of our facilities provide on-demand, one-to-one training so that researchers and industry clients reach a level of proficiency where they can operate the instruments independently.

    Facility Directory

    Once you have lodged a project at a facility, staff will be able to advise you on appropriate training for your chosen technique. Depending on the nature of the project it may be more cost effective to hire one of our staff members to operate the microscope for you. For more information please contact your chosen facility.
