Knowledge and skills for students, graduates and apprentices
Metrology skills and training for learners in higher education
We partner with universities across the UK to supplement their curriculum with our world-leading metrology and measurement training.
Our ‘Fundamentals of Metrology’ lecture series is available specifically for university cohorts. This series does a deep dive into each of the SI units, including how they are defined, realised and applied.
Our measurement uncertainty courses can help university students improve the accuracy of their measurements in the lab and help prepare them for future careers in science, research and manufacturing.
We offer bespoke training and collaborations with universities across many of the programmes run by NPL, such as the National Timing Centre and the Quantum Programme.
NPL developed the UK’s first Level 3 Apprenticeship for Metrology Technicians. This unique programme is delivered at NPL and covers a broad range of metrology knowledge and skills.
