An internationally accredited in-depth course covering PROFINET network design, commissioning, and live fault-finding
Who should attend the course?
The Certified PROFINET Engineer course is an in-depth twoday course that is suitable for a wide range of engineers working in a wide variety of industries. The course is suitable for anyone who is working at a technical level in automation and control systems. Because this is an intensive course, we require attendees to be qualified up to Certified PROFINET Installer standard and have attended the PROFINET Troubleshooting & Maintenance Course. However, don’t worry if you are not qualified to this level: we always run both courses immediately before the engineer course so you can take all three in the same week
