The Level 1 Temperature Calibration program delivers an in-depth introduction to temperature measurement and calibration techniques for laboratory and field environments. Key topics include principles of temperature, ITS-90, thermometer types (liquid-in-glass, PRTs, thermocouples), use of dry wells and liquid baths, uncertainty analysis, and documentation. Students engage in guided exercises to calibrate thermometers and interpret calibration data, reinforcing theoretical knowledge with practical skill-building. The program is aligned with industry standards and prepares technicians for advanced training in temperature metrology.
