Measurement Skills Training Courses
Measurement Skills Training Courses (MSTC) are designed to equip industry professionals with essential knowledge and practical skills in measurement science and uncertainty, calibration, and general metrology areas.
The training portfolio includes both regular professional development courses and selected Skills and Workforce Development Agency (SWDA) funded programmes, providing accessible and industry-relevant learning opportunities for workforce upskilling and capability development.
In addition to scheduled courses, NMC offers customised training programmes, technical workshops, and consultancy services tailored to the specific needs of organisations seeking to enhance their measurement capabilities and address specialised metrology challenges.
Skills and Workforce Development Agency (SWDA)-Funded Course:
Selected courses are offered in partnership with A*STAR Knowledge Transfer Office (KTO) and are eligible for SWDA funding support. Registration for these courses is managed through a separate registration portal.
