Customised training and design seminars

 

Capitoline can supply a range of specialised training on the theme of IT infrastructure design and optimisation. This can be very useful to help customers understand and articulate their requirements.  It can be especially useful in helping to translate an IT requirement, expressed in terms of numbers of servers and switches, into floor space, power and HVAC requirements.

The Capitoline course qualifies for 21 BICSI Continuimg Education Credits (CEC) and qualifies as Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for most major institutions such as CIBSE.

Capitoline’s one and three day data centre design course has been delivered all over the world over the last eighteen months and has helped many customers understand how to approach their computer room and data centre requirements on a bigger-picture concept and confidently address technical issues beyond their normal range of experience.
