UK Weighing Federation Training: Theory and Practical Training in Weights and Measures Inspection

UK Weighing Federation Training Day


UK Weighing Federation Training: Theory and Practical Training in Weights and Measures Inspection

This UK Weighing Federation-led training day is offered free of charge and will take place the weighing manufacturers' premises. Training will be delivered by UKWF Technical Officer and legal metrology regulatory expert, Ian Turner. Priority for booking will be given to students.  

During the morning session, trainees will be provided with a theoretical classroom session explaining the technologies involved and the legislation applicable to the instruments. The afternoon will offer a practical session where you will be able to gain hands-on experience with the manufacturer’s engineers of how the instrument operates and how to undertake a verification and inspection on the weighing equipment. The instruments available at this manufacturer’s premises is listed below.

CTSI and UKWF hope these training days will provide a valuable opportunity to help gain experience for your portfolio and the examinations.

Lunch will be provided by the host.
