      The Agilent certificate program (in either LC or GC) is available to corporate clients at this time. We put together custom courses on a class basis and schedule evenings, weekends or days. Pricing is according to the number of students and course. If you are an individual you can register for the courses by visiting www.agilent.com and clicking on Education, Training and Events (in the Technical Support Box) and then Life Sciences and Chemical Analysis. If you select the courses by city, Seneca is the North York site. These courses are offered on an occasional basis during the day and range in price from $484.00 for a one day course to about $2,622.00-$3,000.00 for 3,4, or 5 day hands on courses. All prices are available on the Agilent website. The second way to access these courses is if your company sponsors a class (see above). I'd be happy to speak with you regarding the corporate option. If your company is not interested in booking a full course (8 seats for hands on training), then it may be possible to co-ordinate their interest with that of another corporate client to offer one or more courses.
