Measurement Uncertainties and How to Work with Them

Basic information about the seminar

We have prepared a full-day seminar on Measurement Uncertainties and How to Work with Them for you, intended primarily for staff in metrology and for anyone who simply wants to understand the subject better.

In this seminar you will learn, in a simple form and with the help of examples, what uncertainties actually are and how to work with them. It is an extension of the fundamental knowledge of metrology.

So that we can give every participant our full attention, the seminar capacity is limited to 12 people. Earlier registrations take priority, so do not hesitate to register.
