Drive Technology For Systems Integrators and Design Engineers is name of a multi-hour series of courses offered by Bardac.

Here are the courses' outline:

These courses assume a reasonable depth of knowledge of the basic principles of both AC and DC drive technologies and applications, a general familiarity with industrial control products such as PLCs, serial communications, SCADA systems, etc., and professional knowledge of industrial safety procedures. The course content will focus on system design for more complex applications.
