How many people can attend a course?

Up to 12 per course. Smaller groups mean more interaction with the trainer — which matters most for cleaning coaching.

What language is training delivered in?

Open day courses run in the local language of the location, with English on request. The online academy is available in more than 20 languages.

Can you address our specific problems?

Yes — that's exactly what in-house training and coaching are for. For coaching, our trainers start with a preliminary consultation so the day is built around your real situation.

What do you need from us to train on-site?

A suitable room with presentation equipment — we can bring it if needed. You'll get the most from it if we run the practical exercises in your own environment.

TRAINING

Cleanroom compliance starts with your team. We make sure they're ready.

Training built around your processes and your standards - for operators, cleaners and supervisors, from first induction through to audit readiness.

THE VARIABLE

The biggest contamination risk in your cleanroom is the people in it

You can validate every process and specify every garment - and still fail an audit because of how someone gowned or moved through an airlock. People are the variable behind most deviations and contamination events, and the hardest to see coming. When a deviation lands on your desk, it's rarely the technology that let you down. Trained, consistent teams change that: fewer deviations, cleaner audits, and less firefighting for you.

Untrained Team

Every movement is a variable

100 handling-error index

Gowning shortcuts, airlock habits and cleaning technique drift over time - and none of it shows up until a deviation does.

Trained team

The same people, controlled

50 handling-error index

Role-based training makes the right behaviour the default — so performance holds between audits, not just after them.

Day training

Scheduled, hands-on courses at our centres in Leipzig, Dreieich, Marburg and Eindhoven. Up to 12 people, practising gowning, airlocks and cleaning under real conditions. Local language, English on request.

In-house training

We bring the training to you, built around your layout, your SOPs and your product groups. Up to 12 of your team trained at once, in their own environment - no travel, no lost days.

Coaching

We plan demand alongside your team rather than reacting to it. As a result, urgent orders fall by 40% and the last-minute scramble disappears. An expert watches how your team really works, runs a joint risk analysis, and fixes the weak points - airlock flow, gowning, cleaning technique - with your people, on your floor.

The Cleanroom Academy

Over 1,000 modules in 20+ languages, self-paced and ready whenever your team needs them. Every course ends with a test and a certificate - the same standard proven across every site.

Customised e-learning

When your processes are unique, generic content won't do. We build digital training around your own SOPs - one module or a full programme - from first idea to launch.

Blended learning

E-learning for the theory, on-site coaching for the practice. Knowledge turns into behaviour on your floor — and stays there. For most teams, this is the mix that works.

Foundations For everyone in the cleanroom

Conduct in the cleanroom

The behaviour and barriers that protect your clean environment.

THE DIFFERENCE

We don't sell courses. We build competency.

Most cleanroom training is generic: a slide deck, a room, a certificate. That teaches theory. It doesn't change what happens on your floor at six in the morning. We work the other way round - and stay close to the outcome, the same way you have to.

	Built on your risks We start with your processes and your actual failure points, not a standard syllabus.
	Role-based learning paths An operator, a cleaner and a supervisor each learn what their job demands - no more, no less.
	Taught by practitioners Our trainers work in cleanrooms. They know where teams slip, because they've seen it.
	Part of the whole programme We also run your textiles, cleaning and consumables - so training reflects how your cleanroom really operates.

ONE PARTNER

Training ties the whole programme together

Training rarely sits on its own. It reinforces the garments your people wear, the consumables they reach for, and the cleaning standards they work to. CWS Cleanrooms manages all of it under one coordinated programme - one point of accountability, one quality system, and a team that already knows your site.

Textiles

Cleanroom garments, laundered and validated to the same standard every cycle.

years of cleanroom expertise

When I started my new role, the online GMP course helped me get to grips with the key cleanroom terms and concepts fast. I worked through the essentials at my own pace, the content is genuinely clear, and the tests along the way let me check my progress. A real pleasure to work through.
