The theoretical part of the course is exactly the same as the one imparted in an in-class training. In other words, it covers the totality of the content of a certificate course. Only the format changes.
Basic Preparatory Course
WHAT IS THE BASIC PREPARATORY COURSE?
The KNX Association has foreseen in its statutes the online course modality (rather, semi-face-to-face), which basically consists of::
- 1. The substitution of theoretical and face-to-face classes through online tools.
- 2. The preparation of the student to carry out the so-called KNX Condensed practical Basic course.This course is optional and includes practical classes and an official face-to-face exam in just 15 hours*. If you wish, you can take this course at Futurasmus Zentrum or at any other KNX certified training center.
* Until further notice, the total duration of this course is 8 hours.
