SEMINAR GOALS

Participants receive in-depth knowledge of the tasks, responsibilities and accountability in the ESD protection zone (EPA). They receive information on the selection of protective materials (specifications) and are instructed in the planning, organization and implementation of audits and training courses. They are made aware of the localization of possible sources of ESD damage through in-depth physical background knowledge. The necessary knowledge of measurement and testing technology is deepened. In a final performance review, graduates demonstrate the knowledge they have acquired, which is confirmed by the certificate ESD Responsibility in the EPA.
