Whether you are a manufacturer or operator of machines with CE marking, your employees and managers must be well informed about this subject. But management is interested in something other than the technician, sales in something other than design. Do not leave the knowledge of your people to chance, but rather to training by experienced professionals.
The engineering office for CE marking and risk assessment offers training courses, workshops and seminars lasting several days.
Training ID: WS-RB
Participants
Persons in the company who are to carry out and/or evaluate risk assessments.
