Thermo Launches Newly Equipped Training Facilities for Laboratory Informatics

Thermo Electron Corporation announces modernization of both its European and North American informatics training facilities located in Altrincham UK and Woburn MA. The latest hardware and software technology has been utilized to facilitate advanced training techniques and to enhance the learning experience for users of LIMS and other laboratory informatics solutions. For a limited time Thermo will offer special pricing for new training courses purchased at these facilities.

The upgraded facilities include large flat screen monitors and technology that increases interaction and collaboration among instructor and course attendees. Instructors can present materials and applications directly to the individual workstations, and participants can privately or publicly interact with the instructor. Training can be better directed to an individual’s needs in a focused, comfortable environment.

Thermo is offering customers a special incentive to experience this state-of-the-art informatics training environment. The promotion includes attendance at any three Informatics training courses for a special fixed price that represents savings of up to 50%. From June 1 through August 31, training vouchers in sets of three can be purchased which are redeemable for any standard Thermo informatics training course scheduled at these facilities. Training vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of issue and can be used with any of the qualifying courses within this period. For details on the special training promotion visit:
