A comprehensive course for non-electronic engineers to gain insight, practical knowledge and skills in electricity, essential to work in projects together with electronic engineers and to learn how to
handle electronic measurement instruments.
This training is available for open enrollment as well as for in-company sessions. For in-company sessions, the training can be adapted to your situation and special needs.
Objective
After completion of this course the participant has gained:
- Basic knowledge of electricity to ease the communication with electronic engineers;
- Practical experience with electrical measurements and equipment.
Intended for
This course is intended for engineers (of technical college / university level)
working in research, development and/or engineering. After this course the
following courses can be attended: "Electronics for non-electronic engineers
basics digital electronics (ENE-BDE)" and "Electronics for non-electronic engineers - basics analog electronics (ENE-BEAE).
