QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Frequently asked questions with answers about our EPLAN training course.
The required prior knowledge varies depending on the type of training. No specific EPLAN knowledge is required for our basic training courses - basic PC skills and basic electrical engineering knowledge are completely sufficient. Our EPLAN training is also suitable for complete beginners who have never worked with the software before. For advanced courses and special workshops, we recommend basic knowledge of EPLAN Electric P8 or prior attendance of our basic training course. Participants should be able to create simple circuit diagrams and be familiar with the basic functions. For methodology training, practical EPLAN experience is helpful but not essential. We adapt each training course individually to the level of knowledge of the participants and ensure that everyone can follow the lessons. We can also offer special Education EPLAN programs (EPLAN Education) for educational institutions and adapt them to the respective curricula. For EPLAN Student participants, we also offer specific support for getting started in the software environment. In the case of mixed prior knowledge in the team, we recommend prior consultation in order to find the optimum training format - either staggered training courses for different levels of knowledge or a customized concept that meets all participants where they are. Our experience shows: Learning success depends less on prior knowledge than on motivation and willingness to embrace new ways of working.
The main difference to manufacturer training courses lies in our strong practical relevance and application orientation. While manufacturer courses often focus on standardized content and the teaching of all software functions, we concentrate on practical application scenarios and efficient working methods. Unlike training courses in EPLAN Monheim, with us you learn directly using examples from your industry. Our trainers are not only training experts, but also active electrical designers with daily EPLAN project experience. They contribute valuable practical knowledge and can address typical challenges from everyday work. Our ability to tailor training content to your industry and specific requirements is particularly valuable. On request, we can integrate your own projects and templates and incorporate company-specific workflows. Our EPLAN software training goes beyond the mere teaching of functions and focuses on efficient planning methods. At the same time, we fully comply with the official EPLAN curriculum requirements for certified courses. For the EPLAN Education area, we have developed special didactic concepts that are geared towards the needs of educational institutions. This balance of standardized basic knowledge and practice-oriented application creates an optimal transfer of learning into everyday working life - a decisive advantage for the rapid amortization of your training investment.
Absolutely - the integration of your own projects and templates is a central element of our company training courses. We analyze your typical projects, templates and working methods in advance and integrate them specifically into the training concept. Our EPLAN online courses even make it possible to use your own projects in virtual training sessions. Participants learn directly from familiar content and can transfer what they have learned directly to their day-to-day work. This approach considerably shortens the transfer time between training and productive application. The opportunity to directly address company-specific challenges and jointly develop optimal solutions is particularly valuable. Of course, we also support the integration of your specific planning specifications and templates in EPLAN Preplanning training courses. EPLAN Preplanning is an essential building block for integrated engineering processes, which we pay particular attention to in our training concepts. It goes without saying that we treat your project data as strictly confidential and can conclude a corresponding agreement on request. For the preparation, we need typical project examples, templates and information on your workflows about two weeks before the training date. This practical, individual approach ensures maximum learning effect and direct benefit for your company - a significant advantage over standardized training courses with generic examples.
We offer flexible training formats that are optimally tailored to your requirements. The costs of EPLAN training courses vary depending on the format, number of participants and specific requirements - we will be happy to explain detailed price models in a personal meeting. Basic training courses typically last three to five days, with around six to seven hours of effective training time scheduled each day. Advanced courses last two to three days, while special workshops usually take one to two days. For EPLAN Preplanning, we offer specialized modules lasting between one and three days, depending on requirements. For company training courses, we can flexibly adapt the time structure - from compact intensive formats to modular training courses with longer intervals between units. Our EPLAN P8 training courses cover all the functions of the current software version and specifically address the latest features. All training courses follow a balanced concept of theory, demonstration and practical exercises, whereby we place particular emphasis on sufficient practice time. The training can be carried out either as classroom training on your premises, in our training rooms or as online training using professional training software. In online formats, we pay particular attention to regular activation, shorter learning units and interactive elements. Each participant receives comprehensive training documentation, practice materials and a certificate. We limit the maximum number of participants to six to eight in order to guarantee individual support.
EPLAN training courses generate a variety of measurable benefits for your company. Primarily, they lead to a significant increase in efficiency in the engineering process. While the EPLAN P8 price and training costs represent one-off investments, you benefit from significantly reduced project costs in the long term. Our customers typically report time savings of between 30% and 50% on routine tasks due to optimized working methods and better software usage. The error rate in project documentation has been shown to decrease by up to 70%, reducing costly rework and problems in downstream processes. Standardized methods and consistent working practices noticeably increase the quality of documentation, which has a positive effect on customer satisfaction and public image. Independence from individual knowledge carriers increases as methods and standards are established throughout the team. This improves project planning and reduces the risk of failure. Well-trained employees also increase the attractiveness of your company for EPLAN-related jobs, as specialists enjoy working in professional environments. The increased flexibility for new requirements and projects through better system understanding and more efficient methodological approaches is particularly valuable. Our EPLAN Preplanning training courses also make a significant contribution to improving your upstream planning processes. Last but not least, the improved skills lead to higher employee satisfaction and loyalty, as professional work with modern tools increases self-esteem and work motivation. All in all, these benefits lead to a clear competitive advantage and a rapid return on the training investment.
Good preparation maximizes the success of the training. Technically, participants should have a functional EPLAN workstation with the latest software version and a valid license. For EPLAN Student participants, we offer special support in setting up the training license. For online training, a stable Internet connection, headset and ideally two screens are recommended. In terms of content, it is helpful if participants write down their specific questions and challenges in advance and let us know so that we can address them specifically. For company training courses, we ask for typical project examples and information on current workflows around two weeks before the start of the course. For EPLAN course participants, we provide a short introductory documentation in advance, which already conveys the first basics. From an organizational point of view, we recommend that participants are fully released for the duration of the training course in order to minimize interruptions and enable maximum concentration. An appropriate room design with sufficient space, good lighting and minimal disruptive factors also makes a significant contribution to learning success. The mental preparation of the participants is particularly valuable: an open attitude towards new methods and the willingness to question established ways of working are decisive success factors. We are happy to support you with a detailed preparation checklist that covers all relevant aspects.
Definitely - aftercare is an integral part of our training concept. We offer various support formats to ensure the transfer of what has been learned into practice and to clarify any questions that arise. In our EPLAN Online training, debriefing appointments and question sessions are already integrated into the concept. For four weeks after each training course, participants have direct access to their trainer by e-mail or telephone for short-term questions during practical application. Optionally, we offer structured follow-up support packages with regular online sessions in which specific application questions can be discussed. Follow-up workshops about 4-8 weeks after the main training course have proven to be particularly successful, in which initial practical experience is reflected upon and in-depth topics are covered. Our EPLAN training also includes access to selected online resources, which are also available after the training. In the EPLAN Education area and for EPLAN Student users, we have developed special follow-up support concepts that take into account the special requirements in educational contexts. Various coaching and mentoring concepts are available for long-term support, in which our experts support your employees over several months in the implementation of challenging projects. We also offer special refresher courses that refresh knowledge and add new functions. This comprehensive follow-up support ensures that the knowledge imparted during the training is not lost, but develops into a sustainable increase in skills - a decisive factor for the long-term return on investment of your training measure.
