Interactive online micro-courses provide educational resources on connectivity and sensor technologies for design engineers
LONDON, UK, 22 March 2019 – RS Components (RS), the trading brand of
Electrocomponents plc (LSE: ECM), a global multi-channel provider of
industrial and electronic products and solutions, has partnered with TE
Connectivity, a world leader in connectivity and sensors, to launch the
TE Learning Centre on DesignSpark, the global platform and community for
design engineers. The courses will enable designers and engineers to
obtain a fast overview of many advanced products, technologies and
solutions.
Available at www.rs-online.com/designspark/te-learning-centre,
the TE Learning Centre provides easy access to a host of interactive
online micro-courses. Designed to accelerate engineers’ knowledge and
understanding, the bite-sized sessions last between five and ten minutes
long and provide information on a range of different technologies and
applications, as well as offering several product-specific tutorials. In
addition, available within each course are extra resources that enable
engineers to go much deeper into a subject if they wish to do so.
The library of micro-courses already available in the TE Learning
Centre includes tutorials on: pressure sensors; USB Type-C receptacles;
micro-motor connectors; heat-shrink tubing; wire markers; straight and
right-angle connectors; and circular hybrid connectors, among many
others. The library will be augmented with new courses being added on a
regular basis.
Commenting on the launch, Mike Bray, Vice-President of DesignSpark,
said: “We aim to give our audience access to the best new learning and
training resources that will help them progress their designs. We’re
delighted that TE Connectivity shares that vision and has chosen to work
with us on the release of the TE Learning Centre on DesignSpark.”
The TE Learning Centre is available now on the DesignSpark website at:
