On-site Workshops — At your mill or place of work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The “hands-on course” concept is also offered by NCSU at mill and office-sites. This course will blend presentations along with in-mill activities on mill equipment and guided mill tours when available to provide a very specific, focused learning experience.  The course can be done with hands-on activities even at non-manufacturing sites such as office buildings.  The course content can be adjusted to any set of students with respect to content, course time, and cost. Please contact Dr. Venditti for more information, richard_venditti@ncsu.edu.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environmental LCA Hands-On Workshop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This workshop will allow students to gain the skills required to perform product and process life cycle assessments using accepted methods and tools. This will be achieved through a combination of lectures, computer laboratory instructions, and student computer problems\/projects. Commercial LCA software will be provided to use extensively in the hands on portion of the course.  This course is offered to companies on a as-needed basis.  Contact Dr. Venditti for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distance Short Courses — At your own pace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We offer distance based short courses on pulp and paper technology.  These courses are typically 8 modules and can be completed in 4-8 weeks.  A certificate of completion is provided if the student passes a final exam administered via distance.   Current offerings include<\/p>\n\n\n\n
