Our Philosophy

Training customers and introducing students in the proper use of strain measurement techniques is the essential part of the Strain Academy philosophy.


Our goal is to get our participants to feel confident that they get quality data out of their measurements! And after all, isn't this the reason why we all start performing tests in the first place?


With our trainings, the products of VPG Micro Measurements, our cooperation with the British Society for Strain Measurements (BSSM) and their Code of Practice we hope to contribute to define a quality standard on the market for all strain gauge based installation techniques.
