MAINTAIN COMPETITIVENESS
RICH SOURCE OF KNOWLEDGE
BOOST YOUR SKILLS
Your LabWare system is a critical application for your business that will typically have a
15–20+ year lifespan and will be expected to adapt to future business challenges as they arise. Applying efficient, cost-effective solutions is key to helping your organisation maintain operational competitiveness.
The CEC allows you to monitor industry trends, maintain awareness of best practices and learn of practical solutions to everyday challenges other customers may have faced.
There are over 2,500 companies worldwide using LabWare systems in a wide range of industries, and all are based on the same LabWare product platform.
The LabWare user community is therefore a considerable source of knowledge, and the CEC provides the opportunity to mine this knowledge in a mutually beneficial way. Focus groups and workshops facilitate industry-specific discussions and encourage networking.
LabWare’s product functionality continuously evolves, and it is important to keep your knowledge current. The training component of the CEC is a major benefit of the time you invest in attending the meeting, as we provide a comprehensive range of training courses integrated with the formal program of presentations. The training covers LabWare products, aspects of system administration and is suitable for a wide range of skill levels.
