Automotive Homologation Training
A close look at the processes, regulatory resources and testing requirements for homologation designed for automotive engineers and executives.
This training provides an opportunity to develop a global view of the complex processes, regulatory resources and testing requirements for homologation.
Each part of the training was designed for project-level engineers and executives who need to better understand the requirements of specific markets. While focused mainly on vehicle manufacturers, suppliers will also benefit from the component and system level certification requirements covered in the training.
This seminar does not constitute legal advice, and attending the seminar does not guarantee regulatory compliance, certification or any other result.
