SCADA system
Automation of Electrical Power Systems
DURATION OF THE TRAINING
12 DAYS INCLUDING PRACTICE AT WORK, LECTURERS AND SPEECHES OF EXPERTS.
Trainings can be also shorter or we can organize traineeship more focused on working experiences
WHEN: due to the very specific topic and the need to involve engineers working in the university or working on the field, for this training is necessary to agree on a period with the sending partner.
The first agreement has been made for OCTOBER 2016 and there are still places available, please contact us at cteformazione@gmail.com
or propose us the suitable period for your organization from September 2016 on
