Analysis and Examination of Foods 2009 course

Event type: Residential course
Location: University of Reading
Start Date: 23/03/09
Duration: 5 day
Cost: free or £895

From: Michael Walker, APA Training Officer

The next annual course at the University of Reading will take place in the week of 23 – 27 March 2009.

This informative and very enjoyable (though demanding) week of lectures and interactive workshops is highly recommended by the APA Training Committee. It is excellent training for work in food, feed and fertiliser enforcement analysis and essential preparation for those intending to sit the statutory qualification examinations for Mastership in Chemical Analysis administered by the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The programme is on a two year rolling cycle, so those delegates who attended in 2008 will find this course particularly useful.

Owing to the generous sponsorship of the FSA the course will be free to the first delegate from each UK Official Food Control (Public Analyst) laboratory site. If there are any spare places, these will be offered to subsequent delegates from OFC (PA)[1] labs or £895 per person for non OFC (PA) labs. This course will be very popular. Places will be strictly limited to 20.
