The course covers essential techniques such as mixing test batches, creating formulas, conducting line blends, and firing glazes, with results mapped onto the Stull chart for analysis. Additional topics include the ceramic periodic table, using glazy.org, adjusting glazes to achieve a true cone 6 fit, and addressing common glaze defects.
