We are offering this session on two different dates and times so you can select the option that best fits your schedule. Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your understanding of UV calibration and improve the accuracy of your color measurement practices.
This training covers the best practices of using AATCC UV Calibration Reference Fabric for AATCC Evaluation Procedure 11. This training features a walkthrough of AATCC EP11 and focuses on how UV calibration impacts color measurement accuracy. Participants will learn what UV calibration does, why it matters when working with whiteness and fluorescent standards, and how comparing measurements with and without UV included can uncover issues in base fabrics, dyes, optical brighteners, and end‑use performance. If your work involves evaluating fabric, managing color data, or using a spectrophotometer, this session will help you make more informed, defensible color decisions.
These are one-hour virtual sessions—choose the day and time that best fits your schedule. Register early and save! Rates increase after July 14.
