PAT Refresher Webinar Series

In the summer of 2021 we hosted a series of webinars over a period of 9 weeks where we discussed a number of topics covered on a PAT Testing Course. These webinars are designed to be refresher sessions and are not a certified PAT Testing Course.

If you have any questions about the webinars, PAT testing or our PAT testing kits, please email us at support@seaward.com. We are always here to help.
