Trainings and Proficiency Certification

Trainings and Qualifications

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an innovative technology, allowing researchers to perform a wide variety of applications and study biological systems at a level never before possible. For those who have not yet had an opportunity to work with NGS, we offer a series of training courses which introduce the sequencing workflow, with emphasis on specific applications such as DNA, RNA, oncology, or microbiology. Training can be delivered at an Illumina Solutions Centre or as a virtual offering.

These trainings are paid-for offerings. For pricing information please log in to MyIllumina account or contact us.

More details on the New to NGS courses and product specific training courses at the Illumina Solutions Centers can be found in our interactive catalogue.
