Details of all of these events and more can be found on the Training Pages of the PI website.
PS - We will also be announcing shortly more in our series of free-to-attend"Practical Aspects" seminars. These will cover Factory Automation, Process Automation, Safety and Security and Network Diagnostics. We'll bring you details as dates and venues are finalised. |
Certified PROFIBUS training - just 3 places left
The next opportunity to "Get Certified" is on 13th September for the Certified Installer and 14th September for the Commissioning and Maintenance course. These are followed by the Certified PROFIBUS Engineer course scheduled for 3 days commencing 17th September. 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. 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. |
