KNX Certified Engineer Training

KNX training in Nantong, China

Taught by certified KNX engineers — real project experience brought into the classroom, from bus principles and ETS engineering through to certification exam preparation.

Why train with us

KNX is the only open international standard for residential and building control, and the common language of the smart building industry. We operate the first KNX certified training centre in Jiangsu Province and the 18th in China, with a team of three certified KNX engineers — two advanced-certified engineers and one KNX tutor — and more than a decade of hands-on KNX project delivery, from private villas to commercial buildings to cruise-ship lighting.

Every point in the syllabus comes from engineering we have actually done. That is the difference between teaching a manual and teaching a system.

Who the course is for

Electricians and installation teams, interior designers, system integrators, property and facilities teams, and engineers who want to move into the smart building industry. Small classes with real hardware. On completion you should be able to program, commission and troubleshoot a small-to-medium KNX installation independently.
