While a laboratory can be a centre of innovation and creation, it can also be a place of danger if you do not know the correct way to handle and use the different laboratory equipment. That’s where laboratory technicians come in. Often called the backbone of scientific research, good laboratory technicians are needed now more than ever. This course covers the essential skills and information you will need to take advantage of this demand.

Covering the basic skills you should know about working in the laboratory safely, you will come to understand a laboratory’s complex systems and learn how to perform highly technical mechanical and diagnostic tests in a range of different medical and scientific laboratories. The course also covers the procedures for collecting, studying and analysing samples, performing tests on body fluids, teeth, chemical compounds, biological specimens and other fields of science. By taking this course, you will quickly learn to master the essential laboratory skills, boost your confidence and improve your career prospects.
