The University of Sheffield wishes to invite tenders for a CPD External Trainer Framework on behalf of the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, Training Centre at Catcliffe, South Yorkshire.

This course is an overview of the essential properties of metals, how they are produced and where they are used.

This course focuses on basic metallurgical principles, primary and secondary steel making processes, how steels are specified and evaluated, and matching grades to applications

A technical course covering all aspects of the production and use of a range of stainless steel alloys

A technical course describing the production, features and applications of Aluminium, Copper, Nickel & Titanium alloys.

This course aims to provide a sound understanding of the scientific principles of metallurgy and how to apply them to specify and process metals in an industrial context.

This course covers the theory and practicalities of optical and electron microscopy.

This course gives an overview of the secondary and down-stream processes involved in the production of major industrial metals, including steel, aluminium, titanium and nickel alloys and their finished components.

This course will provide a sound understanding of the beneficial effects of heat treatment to a range of ferrous and light metal alloys

This course addresses the key aspects of quality from the perspective of engineering services and product manufacture.

An introduction to the mechanisms of material failure due to mechanical and environmental factors.

This is a technical course describing the techniques used to determine the mechanical properties of metals and for non-destructive testing (NDT) of structures and components

This is a technical course that describes the various mechanisms by which metals and alloys corrode and the technologies preventing it.
