The Workshop:
We are pleased to announce that ACB continues to run its training seminars in Europe for anyone involved with compliance and certification of radio equipment, or devices containing radio modules.
Join ACB for a comprehensive overview of compliance, testing, methods and requirements for EMC
and Radio Regulations. The seminars will cover methods of evaluation and certification requirements for equipment with demands for EMC and radio compliance, with specific focus on radio regulation compliance.
As with previous years, ACB will re-visit the basic fundamental requirements for product compliance and certification in the primary areas of focus; the USA, Canada, Europe and Japan.
In addition, we will introduce and explain some important changes that have happened and continue to evolve in our industry at this time.
Many things have changed in our industry since our last seminars in 2015.

Why Attend?
Join us if
you have any involvement in: organizing,
testing, managing or consulting in the
compliance industry. The workshop will cover
regulatory approvals for electronic and radio
devices.
The Workshop will review the compliance
process and examine each step in detail, making
it suitable and valuable for complete beginners
or seasoned, experienced certification
professionals.
We focus on the most important
topics which face the industry today, such as
the integration of radio modules; critical to
many manufacturers today, especially in the
M2M
and IoT industry. We explore the limitations
of permitted changes and modifications to
certified equipment and the complexities of
product families of multiple models and the
combination of co-located radio devices.
ACB is
one of the world’s most active Wireless
Certification Bodies. We understand product
compliance and certification, and have a clear
insight into the most important topics for the
industry. We know how to avoid mistakes during
approvals for wireless devices. We will
explain the authorization processes and how to
get products to market as quickly and
efficiently as possible.
In addition to the
regulatory compliance administrative processes,
we cover testing requirements and permitted test
methods. This topic is important for test
labs, manufacturers and consultants. Understanding the applicable test requirements
and the correct application of those tests
affects everyone in the compliance chain. This
is important for our test lab visitors and is
essential learning for the manufacturers who are
ultimately responsible for the accuracy and
applicability of the test results.
Our workshops
have become famous for their ‘question and
answer’ sessions where attendee questions are
resolved to find a solution, including guidance
on to find the answers to such questions
yourselves. Register early to submit questions
and influence the workshop agenda.
The
interactive environment of the ACB seminars,
presented by some of the industry’s best known
experts, is what sets us apart from the other
seminars available. This is not simply a
marketing presentation of information, this is
genuine training on some of the most
misunderstood topics.
The information learned at
this seminar will progress your career whilst
saving your company time and money in testing,
certification and important product time to
market benefits.
Who Should Attend
Engineers,
program managers, test technicians, regulatory
personnel and compliance managers working in
EMC, Radio and telecommunications testing and
Regulatory Compliance for North America, Europe,
Japan and elsewhere around the World.
In
addition to the compliance and certification
requirements; test engineers, design and
development engineers and technicians will
benefit from receiving instruction on test
methodology from the experts.
As the only
independent TCB, we are pleased to provide
testing and compliance training for test labs
and compliance specialists. The level of
attendance by new and experienced EMC and Radio
test labs at our seminars shows the industry
appreciation for this training and provides
interesting, enjoyable and stimulating debates.
Previous year seminars have seen
attendance by many of the leading companies
involved in the testing and compliance
industry. Make sure that you and your company is
part of this compliance event; not conspicuous
by your absence.
