The J.A. Woollam Company is proud to announce an Internet-based ellipsometric data analysis course designed for WVASE® software users. We will introduce the fundamentals of data analysis at a beginner to intermediate level. There will be six session in total, with two sessions per week spread out over a 3 week period. The sessions will be ~1.5 to 2 hours long.
If you use a different J.A. Woollam software package (i.e. CompleteEASE), please contact us for details regarding pertinent courses of interest for you.
Course Details
Each registered participant will be invited to participate in sessions, and to view recordings of each session afterwards. In addition to internet-sessions, students will receive relevant example data sets to practice. Homework can be sent to the instructor as a WVASE® environment file for review prior to the next session. Registered participants who submit all the homework will receive Certificates of Participation.
The Registration fee also includes pdf copies of the sessions and a pdf copy of the WVASE® Software Training manual as a download.
Internet conferencing
Participants must have internet access to participate in the webinar so they can log onto the course via GoToWebinar®. For audio, participants can either call one of the numbers provided by GoToWebinar® at the time of the session, or access audio from their computer via a VoIP connection from GoToWebinar® . Participants who are from the same organization/facility are welcome to participate from a conference room using a commonly shared computer, projector and audio connection.
Recordings of all sessions will made available to registered participants during the course and for a period afterwards.
