IO-Link - Workshops & Training

Build, deepen, and apply knowledge

As an official IO-Link Competence & Test Center, TEConcept offers worldwide training and workshops to start, expand, and deepen your company’s IO-Link expertise. Our IO-Link experts have more than 15 years of experience in IO-Link development services. Training is available in two formats: on-site or online. The duration and agenda of the training sessions are individually coordinated with you.

Quick Overview: Training Formats

With our IO-Link workshops and trainings, we support you—depending on your needs—throughout the entire product development cycle: from the IO-Link Pathfinder Workshop in the idea and concept phase, to our IO-Link fundamentals workshops, workshops on IO-Link architecture and development, and specialized trainings on IO-Link compliance testing and development tools. With our sales and service trainings, we also support you in a successful market launch. What matters most to us is that your team builds up IO-Link-specific expertise so you can independently leverage the full potential.

No matter which phase your IO-Link project is in—our trainings will move you forward.

We offer the trainings either in-house at your site or on-site at our location, as well as online—in both German and English.
