Training Courses
Photosynthesis training courses are offered throughout the year at various locations around the world. Courses provide information on instrument use, theory, data processing, maintenance, and related topics.
Register early, as class sizes are limited and fill quickly. LI‑COR reserves the right to cancel a session 3 weeks prior.
Courses are designed for users who have little or no experience with the LI‑6800, but may also be useful as a refresher for users with more experience. Some of the topics covered during the courses include:
- Fundamentals of making gas exchange and fluorescence measurements
- LI-6800 hardware and software introduction
- Environmental control
- Making survey and response curve measurements
- Maintenance, calibration and troubleshooting
Additional Information
Attendees are responsible for their own travel, lodging, and other meal expenses. LI-COR has negotiated a special rate with a hotel and will make reservations for attendees. Attendees are responsible for providing their own payment information at check-in. Attendees must bring their own instrument to the course.
LI-COR continues to review the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak and the potential concerns associated with hosting group events. As always, our foremost concern is the welfare of both our employees and our customers. We are monitoring recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and other health advisory agencies.
As a result, LI-COR training sessions are subject to change and/or cancellation. Any involved parties will be notified in a timely fashion.
