Training Courses

In addition to calibration and consultancy services, the Measurement Standards laboratory offers a wide range of practical training courses. Scheduled courses, open to all, are conducted in Spring each year with fees ranging from $500 to $1000 + GST depending on the duration of the course and the materials provided. We can also provide 'in-house specials' tailored to your needs and presented on site. You can find out more on the types of courses we run here.
