Yes. Every attendee receives a certificate of completion of the course.
Where does the session take place?
Usually at your premises. The trainer brings the evaluation boards used in the labs.
How many attendees can join?
Small or large groups: tell us how many engineers will attend when you request the course.
What course material do the attendees receive?
The training manuals in PDF format.
Who are the trainers?
Engineers who follow the vendors' train-the-trainer programmes and work on these devices in their own projects.
How do we book a session?
