S&C Electric Co. has announced its 2012 schedule of CEU and PDH accredited education courses focused on giving professionals in the ever-changing electric power industry the knowledge and skills they need to succeed.
Courses draw on S&C’s experience with important topics affecting the electric power industry. Instructors are actively developing solutions for the grid today and offer decades of experience with projects that go beyond the theoretical.
In coordination with the accredited courses, S&C is also offering a new complimentary webinar series in 2012. Each free one-hour webinar is hosted by an S&C subject matter expert and offers attendees one PDH credit for attending. A complete list of available webinar subjects can be found on S&C’s website.
“The power industry is changing at an increasingly rapid pace due to increasing costs of energy and environmental imperatives,” says Wanda Reder, S&C vice president—Power Systems Services. “The industry is innovating and applying new technologies and techniques worldwide, and education is key to keeping up with these changes. Our education events leverage S&C’s expertise to give attendees training that they can apply day-to-day on the job.”
All courses are held at S&C’s Chicago headquarters, and many allow students to interact with systems and equipment used in the field. A schedule of course dates, times and topics can be found below.
