Passing on best practices and experience is essential in all areas where IRMM
is working. IRMM hosts a large number of PhD and post-doctoral fellows,
visiting scientists, national experts and trainees every year and offers many
opportunities for young scientists.
IRMM also works in close collaboration with European universities and fostered
the Euromaster Measurement Science in
Chemistry and has a fellowship scheme that allows stays at the institute
up to three years.
During that period our PhD and post-doctoral fellows are thoroughly trained in
many measurement techniques and on how to produce reliable measurement
results. Also shorter stays are possible, especially for more senior experts
and trainees.
IRMM can also provide access for external users to its large scale facilities
for neutron physics: the two accelerators GELINA and IRMM Van de Graaff. Beam
time is available via the EUFRAT
project.
Specialist training courses are also regularly organised by the institute
(e.g. use of reference materials).
IRMM has also set up a life long learning programme for metrology in chemistry
(TrainMiC), through which harmonised
knowledge is created and via national teams composed of trainers which have a
JRC User Licence Agreement (Commission Decision of 17th Dec 2008).

and jobs.
 | Forthcoming training courses |
Use of reference materials and the estimation of measurement uncertainty
|
| Training course |
| April 27-28, 2010 |
| Geel, Belgium |
This course provides participants with the theoretical basis for the
estimation of measurement uncertainty and establishment of traceability. The
course is intended for laboratory managers and practitioners in analytical
laboratories who use reference materials for statistical quality control,
method validation and calibration and need to assess measurement uncertainties
on customer’s demand or as requirement of ISO 17025. Further information is
available in the
course leaflet ( 105KB
).
