In addition to training provided with your SEM, additional training options are available. With the purchase of any SEM from Element Pi, customers are provided with an opportunity to visit our lab for additional advanced training up to 2-3 days AT NO COST using the same type of equipment as they have purchased. Travel cost is the responsibility of the customer and the lab can easily allow up to 3-4 persons comfortably.
