For employees with planned switching duties

Agree the relevant theoretical foundations

The course covers the theoretical foundations of the planned switching duties. Topics and company rules are agreed for the relevant area of work.

This links general principles with your company’s installations and tasks. The specific training scope is provided as part of the personal planning process.
