OVERVIEW

The second year training course includes 575 hours of student activity at specialized laboratories in order to acquire skills with the purely practical activity envisaged by the profile of the Biomedical Laboratory Technician. The traineeship path is divided by sectors in periods of between two and five weeks. Before the professional training period, students must acquire 1 CFU of laboratory preparatory to the apprenticeship with obligatory presence.
