A regular programme of seminars and training courses is held at Ricardo’s Shoreham Technical Centre in West Sussex, England, where attendees can gain direct access to Ricardo’s technical experts and network with peers from their own or other industries. Click on Scheduled Seminars details for the latest programme.
Ricardo also hosts private seminars and training courses for clients, which can be carried out at our facilities, or a client’s facility. This facilitates delivering the material to a large group of people from the same company and also allows the client to request that specific areas be focussed upon, or specific questions be answered by the course. Completely bespoke courses can be generated when a client requires a topic that is not part of Ricardo’s portfolio of topics. Content can range from presentations on the latest developments in a certain field, or the implications of new emissions legislation on particular components, to practical training courses where attendees learn new skills or workshop-type events, where the Ricardo expert will help the client to solve its own problems related to the material being presented.
