'Distinguish
yourself from the others and show that you are the expert.....Become
a Certified PROFIBUS Engineer. '
|
The 'Certified PROFIBUS Engineer' course is a world
wide recognized training program. It has been founded to create a quality platform for PROFIBUS qualified
engineers who are acknowledged by an official exam.
The Certified PROFIBUS Engineer course is an intensive
hands-on and theoretical 4-day training program. On the last
day there will be an exam.
After passing the exam, the participant gets the title ‘Certified
Engineer' and will be officially registered.
The Certified PA module takes 2½ days and is fully concentrated on PROFIBUS PA. It is only
accessible for people who have passed the standard Certified
PROFIBUS Engineer course.
PROFIBUS plays a primary part in industrial automation
and in most cases
Certified Engineers are the only ones who can carry out the
project. Through the valuable Certified Engineer status, companies
and its employees can distinguish themselves from the other
companies who are involved with this technology.
