Engineers and technicians must be trained
Leading UK engineering and technology firms, with a combined multi-million pound spend on training and development, will assemble at the IEE 'Investing in Technical Teams' forum on 4 November 2004.
Workshop gives complete picture on CE.NET 5.0
A UK-based workshop will give embedded software development engineers hands-on experience in running the new 5.0 release of Windows CE.NET on next generation processors.
By helping engineers to improve their knowledge of Alstom products, they can use the equipment to their best advantages.
Furthermore, by learning to recognise potential faults, plant downtime can be greatly reduced should a problem occur in the workplace.
All new products manufactured by Alstom come with a free half-day training course at the Academy.
Boasting three fully equipped training rooms, the ALSPA Academy features the latest equipment including a Dynamic Positioning simulator and a range of operational drives and PLCs.
Staffed by fully qualified engineers holding technical tuition certificates, the ALSPA Academy's dedicated training suites and workshops allow safe, hands-on learning.
Courses can be delivered to suit operators, development engineers and maintenance technicians alike.
Tailor-made courses can also be arranged for customers who need to mix and match a range of tutorials that cover different Alstom control devices.
For customers who cannot access the ALSPA Academy in Rugby, then Alstom will make use of its portable training equipment and arrange a training course at a customer's site instead.
