Our metallurgy training includes on-demand courses, webinars, and on-site courses geared to design, manufacturing, and quality engineers. The training covers practical metallurgy and metals engineering concepts that apply to component design, manufacturing process development, supplier evaluation, and solving quality problems.
Our on-demand courses, webinars, and webinar recordings are listed below. We also offer all-access passes at a discount.
Many engineers involved in product design and manufacturing haven’t had much metallurgy training. So, they get stuck when design decisions and quality problems come up that involve metals.
Our training helps close the metals science knowledge gap, enabling engineers to take advantage of opportunities to:
All while being more productive.
