+The EFTS is a nonprofit intensive full-week seminar intended to provide education and training with lectures and lab sessions.  It targets a broad audience: Engineers, Ph.D. students, post-doctoral fellows, young scientists, newcomers, etc.
+The EFTS is held every year at the beginning of Summer at the [[https://www.femto-st.fr/en|FEMTO-ST Institute]].
-===== Registration for July 2019 will open at the end of January 2019 =====
+This seminar is unique in the following:
+  * Broad spectrum of topics related to time and frequency
+  * Balance between academic and applied issues
+  * Broad target audience, keeping high level education
+  * Hands-on lab sessions.  The participants work themselves in small groups with a wide range of instruments made available.
+The high level of training is guaranteed by the world-class [[current:02_scientific_council|Scientific Council]] and lecturers from the major European and International Institutions.
+==== New, since 2026 ====
+  * We plan to accept **//up to 60 participants//**, all accessing 7.5 H labs in small grpups.\\
+  * A small fraction of such places may be reserved, based on scientific criteria.\\
+  * There are **//two tracks//**: //Metrology// (max 24 people) and //Research// (max 36 people).\\
+    * The tracks differ in two of the three 2.5-H lab sessions.
+    * All lectures and one lab session are the same.\\
+    * Applicants express their preference, but they may be assigned to the other track depending on the availability of places.\\
+  * Companies/Institutions sending multiple participants shall indicate a **//correspondant//**, our unique interlocutor if we need to arbitrate in applications.\\
+  * The full-labs (12H), half-labs (6H) and no-labs options are suppressed.

-The EFTS is intended to provide education and training, including laboratory practice in a full-week seminar, and targets the broadest audience: Engineers, Ph.D. students, post-docs, young scientists, newcomers, etc.
+====Thanks====
+The EFTS can happen only thanks to the good will and to the voluntary work of numerous people.
+None of us has been paid for this additional burden ever, and sometimes lecturers choose to travel on their own research grants.
+As the intellectual pursuits of academia are largely in the realm of the gift economy, by far the greatest reward is found in the appreciation of one's work by one's colleagues.
-This seminar is original in the following:
+**The EFTS is kindly hosted by [[https://www.supmicrotech.fr/en|SUPMICROTECH / ENSMM]].
+See the [[current:07_thanks|Thanks]] page for more.**\\

-  * Broad spectrum of topics related to time and frequency
-  * Broad target audience, yet keeping high level education
-  * Balance between academic and applied issues
-  * Laboratory sessions (not only demos, the attendees are expected to practice on a wide range of instruments made available)
