What is this?
The Vacuum Lectures
We have created The Vacuum Lectures, a 12-lecture, online three day lecture series which covers all the vacuum lectures covered in our two other courses (The Three Day in-person course and the 13-week online course). This course is designed for those that are not able to travel to an in-person course nor are able to afford the time of the more comprehensive and thorough 13-week course. The lecture series allows for direct discussion with instructors about each lecture through Google Meet. Once registered each participant will receive link details for video participation.
LECTURE SLIDE PACK:
Participants will receive the 12-lecture slide pack as a pdf file.
CERTIFICATE OF PARTICIPATION:
At the end of the course participants will be awarded a certificate from the VSA verifying that they did attend all three days of the course presentations. Instructors verify attendance through a list of attendance of each lecture and their comprehension through a series of multiple choice questions for each of the 12 lectures delivered.
ACCESS TO THE LECTURE RECORDINGS:
All participants will have access to the recordings of each lecture after the lecture series is completed.
UPGRADE LECTURE SERIES COURSE TO 13-WEEK VACUUM COURSE:
The Vacuum Lectures certificate can be upgraded to a Certificate of Graduation (which has either a PASS or PASS WITH DISTINCTION) for the 13-week online course by completing the assignments, and participating in the weekly tutorials and two laboratory classes. The upgrade allows the student to upgrade their creditials in their own time.
