The Advanced Program in Industry 4.0, a training initiative on emerging technologies within the scope of Industry 4.0, returns in May to meet the needs of the fourth industrial revolution. The Program will focus on topics like digital transformation, emerging technologies, methodologies, tools, and the potential impact of these approaches on industry.
Like previous editions, the third one is promoted by INESC TEC and the Institute of Science and Innovation in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (INEGI), which will share their knowledge in areas such as artificial intelligence, automation and robotisation, virtual reality and cybersecurity. With a team of more than 21 experts in these areas, the Program totals 64 hours of advanced training over an 8-week period.
Aimed at business executives and middle and senior managers of industrial and tech companies, as well as administrators, engineers, entrepreneurs, and consultants who aim to lead the implementation of industry 4.0, the initiative will allow participants to explore various themes and technologies, culminating in the possibility of visiting organisations.
Américo Azevedo, coordinator of INESC TEC’s TEC4Industry, states that “INESC TEC and INEGI, as Technological Interface Centres, are again coordinating efforts to provide a unique learning experience to access emerging technologies in the context of Industry 4.0, while perceiving their impact and determining maturities and roadmaps”.
“The growing need for knowledge in the technological areas and the exceptional feedback from participants of previous editions – which highlight the cross-cutting, comprehensive and balanced program in terms of content; the knowledgeable and experienced lecturers; technical visits and sharing of experiences – are a great incentive to this program,” said Ana Maria Sousa, head of INEGI’s Advanced Training area.
Applications for the Advanced Program in Industry 4.0 are now open, and more information is available here.
