Description: This multi-day course offers sufficient theoretical and practical background to perform independent work in liquid chromatography. Lectures encompass all major areas of liquid chromatography likely to be encountered by workers practicing in the field.
AACC Continuing Education credits will be awarded to the learner after completion of a short survey at the end of the course. 16 credit hours for the lecture and 2 credit hours for the optional lab. The course will be delivered in half-day sessions, lasting approximately four hours each. Each session involves a live instructor and opportunities for questions and discussion. Course notes will be delivered in PDF format to all students prior to the course.
Printed course material is provided, at no extra cost to the student, by the Chicago Chromatography Discussion Group.
