This is one of the most comprehensive laser mechanics courses available. It starts at the very beginning and lays a solid foundation for continued learning. The course utilizes hands-on training with extensive activities and training designed to develop a true understanding of the maintenance procedures involved with lasers.

This 7-day school will teach through hands-on experiences optics assembly and cleaning, calibrations, and alignments. The beginning of the course will focus on core laser and optical components as well as sub-assemblies that are typically common to all laser systems. This enables the engineer to provide the necessary preventative and periodic maintenance that all of their laser systems require. It also allows them to be able to provide the service repair when things go wrong.

The remaining 3 days of the program will provide a more in-depth look at specific laser systems. Specific procedures are performed on a variety of models of lasers that are common within the industry such as ophthalmic laser systems like the surgical Ho:Yag and the Q-switched Yag lasers. Procedures performed on the Alexandrite, KTP, CO2, and Pulsed dye lasers are reviewed through demonstration and video conference. Additional specific procedures are performed on additional models of lasers and rotate and vary from course to course.

This week-long program covers the theory of laser biophysics, advanced laser physics, laser electro-optics, biological effects, and surgical techniques which are all included within various sections of the NCLC laser certification exam. Student-to-teacher ratio is imperative in all of our courses and we maintain a 1-teacher-to-4-student ratio. Most classes typically average 8-12 students and an intensive review session is always held at the end of the class to help prepare for the NCLC Laser Certification exam. While you should not expect to be a laser expert after this course, you can expect to be able to provide your own normal routine maintenance and repairs on your lasers.
