BS 308 to BS 8888 conversion course
What is it?
A half day course for engineers, designers
and technicians who need to up-date from BS 308 practices to BS 8888 and the ISO system.
This course provides an overview of what has changed with the new standard (and what has not changed).
Topics such as geometrical tolerancing and surface texture requirements are covered in very general terms - specific courses are available for those who need a more detailed understanding.

- Learn why BS 308 had to be replaced by BS 8888.
- Find out about the ISO system of
Geometrical Product Specification.
- Discover what you need to do to comply with BS 8888.
BS 8888 is now referenced from Def Stan
05-10 in place of BS 308 (so new defence contracts will need to comply
with BS 8888)
Duration
3½ hours.
Who is it for?
