Our expertise for your success
How can you record sensory impressions objectively and describe them clearly? What are the success factors in sensory consumer research? We are happy to share our knowledge and experience with you in the Döhler Sensory & Consumer Science seminars – by practitioners for practitioners.
With our tailored sensory training, you can arrange for personalised training to suit your needs – whether that's online or in person at your offices. In addition to our one-day Online Sensory Training, we run our two-day “Sensory Science Extended” and one-day “Sensory Science Compact” practical seminars several times a year at our headquarters in Darmstadt. In these sessions, we work according to the train-the-trainer principle, teaching the basic principles of sensory testing methods and how they are used in practice.
Learn about sensory methods that can be used in your company. The training includes a tasting kit and a wealth of practical examples.
The online sensory training course is geared towards all interested parties from industry and research whose day-to-day role includes responsibility for performing and evaluating sensory tests, and who wish to deepen their knowledge in this area.
