Master Class Teaches HbA1c, Hb, Glucose, and Lactate Measurement

By LabMedica International staff writers
Posted on 01 Oct 2013
A global point-of-care (POC) diagnostics business, announced that it would support and train its customers in the capabilities of new and existing analyzers for HbA1c, hemoglobin, glucose, and lactate testing.

EKF Diagnostics (Cardiff, UK) is delivering the 2013 Master Class series to provide delegates with a comprehensive understanding of the company's range of blood analyzers and the conditions that have been developed to diagnose and monitor, including diabetes and anemia. More...
Since January, delegates from over 50 distributor companies in 30 different countries have gained hands-on experience and training in new POC instruments and applications.

Following successful events in London, Dubai, Thailand, and China, the Master Class Series will continue in Mexico City, on October 3 and 4, 2013. At each event the interactive sessions showcase new products, such as the Quo-Lab HbA1c analyzer as well as new applications for existing products, including Hemo Control, Biosen, and Lactate Scout+. Delegates are encouraged to share their knowledge and experiences of selling IVD products in a competitive marketplace.

Delegates have found the EKF Master Classes to be very useful, appreciating the direct contact with EKF experts and opportunity for additional training. For example, Gigi Veslino, MRL Cybertec Corporation, attended the Master Class in Shenzhen, China, and said, “The EKF Master Class was very informative, yet at the same time it was simple and easy to understand. This will certainly be a great help for us when explaining the key features and benefits of EKF products to our clients.”

She continued, “The event also provided an ideal opportunity for EKF distributors to share knowledge and strategies with one another. We look forward to attending future Master Classes on new products and updates, to ensure that we maintain our knowledge of EKF’s technologies.”
