Conference Survey - your comments appreciated
Many of us had a great time at this year's PROFIBUS & PROFINET Conference where users were able to listen to highly informative presentations on the latest developments and applications.
The hands-on workshops were particularly useful, many reported, as was the opportunity to network with experts from overseas and the UK and view the latest products in the accompanying exhibition.
We are now in process of planning the next event and would really like to ensure that it appeals to the widest audience possible. Please help us help you by participating in our short survey. It won't take long.

Upcoming training opportunities
The next opportunity to get PROFIBUS trained and Certified will be at MMU's Certified PROFIBUS Training week from
20-24th September.
Following a new format designed to help
candidates reach their fullest potential in just a week, the schedule
covers the Certified PROFIBUS Installer course -
which is pre-requisite, the Commissioning & Maintenance module
and finally the Certified PROFIBUS Engineer Course.
Each
course can be taken individually or as part of the full set, depending
on the candidates' existing qualifications and ability.
There is
also a PROFIBUS Engineer Refresher and Recertification Course taking
place on the 28th September. The course cover latest developments in
PROFIBUS, Systems/Network design and new functions of instruments such
as the PROFItrace.
In October there will be the chance to get qualified on PROFINET, when MMU will be presenting the Certified PROFINET Engineer course on the 12th to 14th. Book now to avoid disappointment!

while Practical Aspects of PROFIBUS &
PROFINET in Factory Automation is on October 5th and concentrates on digital communications technologies in automated
manufacturing and advanced engineering applications.
Covering the use of
PROFIBUS and PROFINET in key application areas such as packaging, printing,
electrical and electronics assembly, robotics, automotive engineering, drives,
mechanical handling and logistics, control systems and energy management, it
focuses on the practical aspects of using PROFIBUS and PROFINET in factory
automation applications from system design and safety considerations through to
