  2. Static Control Training • Normal Classes: • DVD or Video sessions that don’t adequately or realistically cover what you actually do in your facility – good to spread the word but not always focused on what you really need to do • Vendor sponsored training that has a major goal of selling you something (a little harsh but it happens and some are actually pretty good –not really free!) • Consultant training (can be expensive unless part of some other activity where it is built in) • ESD Association Program Manager training (excellent but more than what many need)

  3. Texas Chapter Training • When? • March 4-5, 2014 • Where? • 3M Innovation Center, 6801 River Place Blvd. • What time? • 8:30 AM- 4:30 PM each day • What? • Four (4) sessions

  13. Who can benefit from this program? • ESD damage is not going away – in-fact it is increasing due to automated processes leading to charged device model (CDM) damage • Control of static charge on people - (human body model) HBM is pretty well understood but correct implementation is necessary now and always

  14. Who can benefit from this program? • This training program is intended for small to medium size companies that have no one on their staff to manage the control of electrostatic risks • Any size company will benefit of this one of a kind (and one time only) program at the current pricing structure • Not likely to happen in this area again (or at least not for a long time)

  15. Who can benefit from this program? • In addition, this program will benefit those who have had previous ESD training but, really could use a refresher that is based on current standards and practices • We have designed this program for the smaller contract manufacturer, parts distributor, repair facility, retail stores with in-house repair. But, we are sure that all electronic handling facilities can gain from this set of classes
