By operating this course and making it more widely available, Panalytical says it is continuing a strong tradition of support for, and partnership with, the X-ray community.
For many years Panalytical has enjoyed a close relationship with Willis and Duncan, both internationally renowned experts in the field of XRF analysis.
They began the course in 1974 at the University of Cape Town (South Africa); since 1990 the course has also been run at the University of Western Ontario (London, Canada).
Over the years, the Willis and Duncan course has evolved constantly, keeping pace with the latest developments in the field.
The program provides participants with a thorough understanding of XRF spectroscopy and its many applications.
It includes lectures and laboratory sessions and covers both wavelength dispersive and energy dispersive XRF.
