CiA seminars
CAN in Automation (CiA) offers seminars with regard to CAN-related topics. These seminars address development engineers, system integrators, and decision-makers, who want to learn more about CAN. Depending on the type of seminar, they cover the OSI (Open Systems Interconnect) lower layers of all three CAN generations (CAN CC, CAN FD, and CAN XL) or they teach CANopen (CANopen CC and CANopen FD) higher-layer protocols in detail. The content of CiA seminars is device- and manufacturer-independent.
Currently, no regular CAN/CANopen seminars have been scheduled.
Sponsoring
CiA offers CiA members the possibility to take part in CiA seminars as a sponsor. If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact CiA office. We are looking forward to organizing successful seminars together with you.
In-house seminars
In-house seminars are offered to companies with dedicated training requirements. The agenda of an in-house seminar is tailored to your company's specific needs. Any CAN-technology-related topic can be covered.
CiA webinars
CiA webinars inform on latest trends in CAN-based networking. This can cover physical layer aspects (e.g. CAN SIC, CAN XL, etc.), latest news on CAN FD or CAN XL data link layer features, as well as system design aspects (e.g. CANopen FD, integration of embedded networks in cloud applications, safety, cybersecurity, etc.). CiA webinars last ca. 1h (including 15 min questions and answers).
Note: Some of the webinars have been recorded and are available on CiA's Youtube channel.
CiA technology days
These information events provide insights into the latest CAN trends, current CiA activities, and upcoming CiA specification projects. They give CAN users a valuable opportunity to gain an overview of specific CAN-related topics or CiA activities in general, as well as to establish contacts with other CAN users.
