Dr. Thies has taught this three day 'How-to-Make Microcapsules™' short course annually since 1981. It continues to evolve in order to keep pace with the steadily changing microcapsule technology. It is the longest running lab/lecture course in the world devoted exclusively to the hands-on teaching of students on the synthesis of microcapsules by a variety of different techniques.
