All CAPT Courses

Short Course Program Objectives
The CAPT center provides programs to train and re-train workers in skills needed by Colorado's photonics industry.  The CAPT Short Course Program is based on the following concepts:

  • Bring nationally-renowned instructors to teach courses in Colorado at the CAPT facilities;
  • Present a customized short course series to meet the unique training needs of the Colorado photonics industry;
  • Offer an appropriate "hands-on" portion as a part of many of the courses to reinforce the material taught in the classroom; and
  • Provide equipment-specific courses to train interested users on equipment available in the CAPT laboratories.

Instructors
We select instructors who are recognized experts in the specific technology area. 

Course Topics
The topics of the short courses are chosen to reflect the training needs of the photonics industry in Colorado as determined by direct input from members of the local photonics community.  We encourage you to contact us with suggestions for future courses!

Who Should Attend
The CAPT Short Course Program is aimed at audiences at a variety of levels of expertise.  The courses offered at CAPT would be appropriate for different people such as:

  • Optical engineers and technicians wishing to gain specialized skills or to expand their knowledge base
  • Photonics assemblers, testers, and instrument technicians who want to obtain a general understanding of photonics
  • Engineers and technicians who do not currently work in the area of photonics but would like to explore the possibility of working in the field
  • Educators, administrators, and entrepreneurs who wish to learn more about this rapidly growing industry

Satisfaction Guarantee
We strive to ensure the highest quality in our short course offerings.  If for any reason you are dissatisfied with a course, we will refund the full tuition, and use your suggestions to improve the course in the future.
