Building Automation Training - This 12-hour live online instructor-led course teaches how systems operate to save energy and communicate to use the IOT (internet of things) and data to achieve considerable additional savings from proper BAS system integrated design, installation, commissioning, monitoring and maintenance.

Much of today's infrastructure, such as hospitals, data centers, industrial facilities and commercial and multi-residential buildings, have antiquated building automation systems that don’t save as much money in energy and operations as possible and don’t communicate with each other to get the benefits of real-time monitoring and information exchange. Our course teaches how to control energy consumption according to building automation industry standards.

Intelligent building automation systems have improved capabilities to manage energy use and provide better comfort and controlled lighting, security, and emergency response capabilities. IBAS can be used for many applications, including energy management, demand response capabilities, renewable energy and energy storage integration, security, and fire and safety applications. This course aims to learn the rapid technology advances in intelligent building automation systems and how they may be applied to suit various custom applications that can improve comfort, productivity, and education and contribute to economic and environmental objectives.

The focus of this course is on the following:

  • Building Automation Architecture
  • Economics of BAS
  • BAS Integration
  • Emerging Technologies
  • Hardware Innovations
  • Software Innovations

 

What you will learn:

This course will cover many practical examples and be interactive for students to gain a broad understanding of intelligent building automation systems.
