"I am completely new to GCMS system coming (being installed) in 3 weeks. This seminar has completely demystified the process and now I feel very prepared for the installation and training on my system. Without this seminar I think my on-site training would be much more difficult. When I hire another analyst I will make very effort to see that he/she also attends one of these seminars."
      Pam Loard, Millenium Laboratories.

"Confirmed what already knew and taught me a lot that I didn't"
      Ramon Firoes, Dallas County Institute of Forensic Sciences.

"This seminar surprised me in its breath and depth of coverage on gas chromatography. I would recommend this course over and above the standard college level quantitative analysis and organic chemistry overviews of GC analysis for someone who will be using GC as a primary analytical method."
      Jesse McDaniel, Reactive Surfaces, Ltd.

"Probably the best seminar I have attended due to content and knowledge of instructors."
      Renato Murrer, AMPAC Fine Chemicals.
