existing plants, and exclude expensive faulty planning right from

■ SITRAIN highlights
Top trainers
Our trainers are skilled teachers with direct practical experience.
Course developers have close contact with product develop-
ment, and directly pass on their knowledge to the trainers.
Practical experience
The practical experience of our trainers enables them to teach
theory effectively. But since theory can be pretty drab, we attach
great importance to practical exercises which can comprise up
to half of of the course time. You can therefore immediately im-
plement your new knowledge in practice. We train you on state-
of-the-art methodically/didactically designed training equip-
ment. This training approach will give you all the confidence you
need.
Wide variety
With a total of about 300 local attendance courses, we train the
complete range of A&D products as well as interaction of the
products in systems. Telecourses, teach-yourself software and
seminars with a presenter on the Web supplement our classic
range of courses.
Tailor-made training
We are only a short distance away. You can find us at more than
50 locations in Germany, and in 62 countries worldwide. You
wish to have individual training instead of one of our
300 courses? Our solution: We will provide a program tailored
exactly to your personal requirements. Training can be carried
out in our Training Centers or at your company.
The right mixture: Blended learning
"Blended learning" means a combination of various training me-
dia and sequences. For example, a local attendance course in
a Training Center can be optimally supplemented by a teach-
yourself program as preparation or follow-up. Additional effect:
Reduced traveling costs and periods of absence.
