EMAG ACADEMY FROM PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE TO PRACTICAL APPLICATION
Introduction
In today’s competitive environment, one factor stands out: well-trained, dedicated employees. EMAG training supports ongoing education and fosters long-term employee engagement. It imparts in-depth knowledge in the handling of our products. In addition, participation in our machine and programming courses promotes an understanding of interrelationships and independent, goal-oriented thinking.
With experienced trainers and the right formats and methods, we make your employees and your company successful and sustainably so. In addition to theory, practical exercises are a key focus. These exercises take place either on designated training machines or on specially designed equipment equipped with state-of-the-art industrial components.
Both beginners and professionals acquire new know-how that quickly pays off. You and your employees will only know how good an EMAG manufacturing system or plant is once you are familiar with all its functions and tricks.
Customized training courses
Tailored to your new EMAG manufacturing system, these training courses cover all order-specific details and are particularly suitable for advanced users, who require special background knowledge.
Each training course can be held at your company and scheduled to fit seamlessly into your workflow.
