Feedback about our courses
“Thanks for the RF course. We are all in agreement in-house that the course was a big success and has given us many pointers with our product as we go into full manufacture.”

Stephen Hughes, Engineering Manager, Resmed Sensor Technologies, Ireland

“The course was absolutely excellent. Everyone agreed that it was the most useful course we have been on. The instructor was excellent and very patient with all our questions. He adapted the material as we went on to fit our needs which was perfect.”
Kellie Marks, Wireless Group Engineering Manager, Altera Europe, England

“The course was very good for putting together the knowledge required for successful RF PCB designs into a coherent picture. It was also useful to see many real life examples of both successful and problematic designs and problem solving. I feel I am much better equipped now to start working on my own PCB designs.”

Dr. Alexey Lyapin, Physicist, Royal Holloway, University of London, England




"I really enjoyed the structure and content of the course and the explanations provided by the course instructor. The course will really help me to make accurate RF measurements and to correctly interpret the results.”

Athanasios Tsitouras, RF Engineer, Cambridge Consultants, England




“I would like extend my thanks for the great fundamentals course last week. The course was thoroughly enjoyable, and the notes will prove to be a useful reference for me.”

Michael Major, MACOM, Northern Ireland
