(OP)
Can anyone recommend a seminar for a complete newbie in the field of composites that offers a broad spectrum of introductions from materials to processes to applications ? And, most importantly, a seminar which is not intended to sell someones products or services.

As for seminars, I believe the SAMPE Tech Director Scott Beckwith has a traveling "composites for engineers" seminar. I think the SAMPE site has the info..

For picking materials and process details, working with our materials reps has been my primary way of learning.

A big thing is talk to guys that have been in the industry forever.. I just let them talk.. You'd be surprised at what you learn just listening to them go on about the old days and what happened.. I found out that Fiberglass is a lot stronger than we engineers give it credit for.. So far i've used this forum a lot too..
Hopefully that helps..
