Types of microcement courses
Microcement initiation course
If you're looking to get into the application of microcement, this course is the most suitable. You'll learn basic knowledge of the application process, from primer to sealer, and the different tools.
It will last approximately 8 hours (2 h theory + 6 h practice) and will be taught by Jorge Coimbra, master applicator with over 15 years of experience applying microcement.
The program of this microcement course will mainly focus on "Sttandard", the traditional two-component microcement line from Topciment. But the rest of the ranges will also be presented so that students can try other products such as "Evoluttion", single-component microcement; "Efectto", ready-to-use microcement;
Advanced microcement application techniques course
Designed for the expert applicator looking to improve productivity in the application of microcement while reducing costs as much as possible.
Under the guidance of instructor César Orellana, you will learn to cover more surface area in a shorter period. The advanced microcement application techniques course will last approximately 8 hours (1 h theory + 7 h practice).
Advanced textures course
Aimed at the applicator who already has experience in the sector but wants to delve into the methods to achieve different textures with our coatings.
In the course, which will last approximately 8 hours (1 h theory + 7 h practice), the trainer Jorge Coimbra will show you how to play with the granulometries depending on the surface to be covered and the finish you want to achieve.
Advanced Varnishes Course
Focused on the professional applicator looking to delve into the most important step of the microcement application.
You will practice with all the varnishes that exist
(Topsealer WT One Coat, Topsealer WT Anti Slip, Topsealer All in One, Topsealer Quick Dry, Topsealer Pro +, Topsealer DSV and
Presealer) and you will learn how to use each one of them in each type of application.
The course will last approximately 8 hours (2 h theory + 6h practice) and will be taught by the master applicator Jorge Coimbra.
Advanced microcement course for swimming pools
Aimed at the veteran applicator who has skill in the application of microcement and
who is looking to take a step further in their training by learning to coat microcement swimming pools. A subject too complex
for those who do not have ample experience in the sector and have taken other courses previously.
With an approximate duration of 8 hours (1 h theory + 7 h practice), the master applicator
César Orellana will teach the peculiarities of "Atlanttic", the two-component microcement for swimming pools exclusively designed
by Topciment. A product that is also used to coat other surfaces in permanent contact with water such as ponds
or fountains.
Advanced epoxy microcement course
Aimed at professionals with expertise in the application of different microcement systems
and who, now, wish to train in our latest addition: Industtrial. A more waterproof, hard and resistant
microcement than conventional ones and developed especially to coat industrial environments.
Course of about 8 hours duration (1 h theory + 7 h practice), where the master Jorge Coimbra
will instruct on the characteristics, fields of application and techniques of this interior epoxy coating.
Other types of courses
Advanced course in metallic coatings and paints
Ideal for painters and plasterers looking to expand their knowledge about different
decorative coatings.
Hand in hand with Cédric Vichar, a prestigious Swiss applicator with international experience and
specialised in metallic paints and oxides, you will get to know the "Pure Mettal" system (high gloss metallic coating);
the "Classic Mettal" system (coating with metallic particles to create oxidised finishes); or the "Elitte" system (range
of glazes that offers metallic finishes and glitter finishes), among others.
The course will last approximately 8 hours (1 h theory + 7 h practice).
Customised courses
We also offer on-demand courses for those people interested in learning very specific knowledge that is not covered in the rest of the courses.
Microcement training modalities
We have several training courses that adapt to the knowledge level of each applicator.
For learning to be as comprehensive as possible, it's crucial to choose the course that best suits your skills.
All our courses of
application of microcement
and continuous coatings are taught by master applicators with many years of experience and are available in four modalities: face-to-face, on-site training, online and video tutorials.
Face-to-face courses
Topciment's face-to-face courses can be carried out at our microcement factory or at a distributor's facilities in your area.
Those given at the Topcimen microcement factory have a maximum capacity of 12 people. With this limitation, we ensure that each person takes full advantage of the course by having an individual workspace, where they will apply the material on horizontal surfaces and on vertical surfaces.
As for the face-to-face courses at the distributor's facilities, previously trained by the team of expert applicators from Topciment, they are subject to completing a minimum quota of places.
Construction training courses
Are you immersed in a project and need help? Don't worry. At Topciment we provide
our instructors to train your workers in the application of microcement or other
decorative coatings.
Online courses
All the face-to-face courses we teach on microcement application, varnishes
and decorative finishes can also be done from home.
Topciment's online training courses are
designed both for people who cannot
travel to our facilities, as well as for
those who want to reinforce knowledge or review very specific concepts.
Video tutorials
We have video tutorials for those people who are interested in learning very specific things about the application of microcement.
In addition, those who take a face-to-face course will have unlimited access to our video tutorial platform for the following 3 months.
Topciment master applicators
The most important thing for us is to provide professionals with notions that they can implement quickly and effectively on the works, which will help them improve in their day to day.
Therefore, at Topciment we have specialist instructors
with a long professional career who will individually supervise
the work of each applicator, whom they will guide and advise at all times.
Next, we present you the trainers from Topciment:
Cédric Vichard
Much more than a master applicator,
Vichard is a renowned Swiss artist with
whom products take on another
dimension if they pass through his hands.
Specialist in coating with
metallic paints and oxides, he is capable of
covering everything from walls and floors to furniture, cars and
even electric guitars.
Jorge Coimbra
Trained at home, Coimbra has travelled halfway around the world teaching our microcement application courses. 15
years of experience that make him the longest-serving instructor at Topciment.
César Orellana
Although he started as a commercial technician, his
extensive knowledge in the application of
microcement led him to become a national level Topciment trainer. Orellana mainly leads,
the courses aimed at our distributors in Spain.
Topciment microcement courses price
The price of Topciment training courses
depends on several factors such as the level of specialisation .
The cost will be lower in the initiation course, where a mere introduction of continuous coatings is carried out, and higher in the advanced courses.
The cost of the material, which Topciment
provides to each professional for the completion of the
course, is another of the elements that influence the
amount. The material becomes more expensive as the level of
specialisation is higher.
The teaching staff also impacts
the price, as some of the instructors reside
outside of Spain and come expressly to teach the
course in Valencia. This displacement involves a cost
that is reflected in the final price of the course.
Where are the microcement courses held?
The courses ofapplication of microcement from
Topciment are carried out in modern facilities equipped with 4,000 square meters.
While the theoretical part is carried out in a room with a capacity for 100 people, the practical part is developed in a large training room
of 140 square meters in which each professional has an adequate workspace.
Our factory of microcement is located on the Street Viena 31 of Polígono Industrial Mas de Tous de Pobla de Vallbona (València).
