Frequently asked questions

Answers about programmes, learning, technical requirements, certification, booking and company packages.

Learning concept and entry

How is the learning concept structured?

The programmes are aimed at engineers, technical specialists and employees from quality, product development and technical management. The foundation training is also suitable for newcomers with a basic technical understanding.

Do I need prior knowledge?

The Certified Reliability Engineer does not require prior knowledge of reliability engineering; a basic technical understanding is helpful. The expert trainings can be booked independently; prior knowledge in the relevant subject area is recommended.
