Register

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.

CPA

  • Training methodology Certified PA Module (CPA); Theory + practice (incl. exam)
  • Price Certified PA Module (CPA); € 925,- per person
  • Duration Certified PA Module (CPA); 1 day (9 AM - 5 PM)

Description

The Certified PA module takes 2 days and is fully concentrated on PROFIBUS PA. 

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.
