Learn to work with fibreglass and other composites

Manufacture or repair all sorts of products from plant tubs to boats and car bodies to building materials.  Composites are materials used to make things, which are commonly composed of two parts: a reinforcing component that gives the material strength and a resin part that sticks that reinforcing together. Fibreglass is a common material used for reinforcing, but other materials (are used as well (e.g. Kevlar, carbon fibre).

This course is a learning experience that can provide a solid foundation for building your skills and experience working with composites. It can be a great training tool for employers introducing new staff into a factory or workshop. It’s equally a valuable step toward building up your own knowledge and skill in the subject – whether as a hobbyist or in your workplace.
