We offer several different training models no matter where your experience level is with flow. All training requests need to be made in iLab
- BD Fortessa Basic Instrument Training: Learn how to run a cytometer on the FACS Diva Software. This will give you more flexibility when reserving either the 3-laser or 5-laser Fortessa.

- Cytek Instrument Training: Learn how to run our spectral analyzer - the Cytek Aurora. This training will take you through doing proper titrations fit for this instrument, and a multicolor experiment set up on the Spectroflo software. By the end, you will be fully independent with 24-hour access.
- BD FACS Aria III Cell Sorter Training: For experienced Fortessa users. Get more availability on our cell sorters and cheaper booking prices. Learn all the functions of our FASC Aria III.
