The company headquarters in Galliera Veneta (Padova) will host the FoodTechMaster training course, with the aim to share the most advanced techniques applied to food production and to spread knowledge and skills between 9-13 October 2017. Pavan offers to all participants a unique training experience, with both theoretical and practical lessons that will tackle a number of issues exhaustively and in depth. Theoretical lessons, given by speakers and experts from the academic world and by process engineers of the Pavan Group will alternate with moments of practical experience, involving tests in pilot plants as well as organoleptic and sensory evaluation tests: an important integration to the course, allowing students to have hands-on experience of the product and to apply the theoretical knowledge acquired during the lessons.
