Certified PROFIBUS training
MMU's Certified PROFIBUS Training to Engineer Level covers the Certified PROFIBUS Installer, the Commissioning & Maintenance module and finally the Certified PROFIBUS Engineer Course. It follows a new modular format designed to help students reach their fullest potential in 5 working days, with a built-in break to enable students to better assimilate the knowledge gained from the pre-requisite Installer course and the Commissioning & Maintenance module and to be fully prepared for the Engineer course itself. Each course can be taken individually or as part of the full set, depending on the candidates' existing qualifications and ability. The next opportunity to take these is on 9th July for the Certified Installer and 10th July for the Commissioning and Maintenance course. These will be repeated on the 13th and 14th September. The Certified PROFIBUS Engineer course is scheduled for 3 days commencing 17th September. To register please use the Registration Form or call Ann on +44 207 193 8018 to check availability for this or future opportunities.
PS - These courses can also be delivered at your premises for groups of 6 or more. Ask for details. |
