Target audience

This training is NOT suitable for end-customers: As most projects are unique and combine multiple products and technologies, we recommend end-customers to take contact with their Barco sales, service representative or project manager to request a customized training better suited to answer the specific needs for their project. This way the training can be optimized in length and in content to cover only the components that are installed at the end-customer’s site and that are of relevance, as well as focus on how the system is used, and also accommodate for any special areas of interest or need.
