In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, the importance of continuous learning and upskilling cannot be overstated. As industries embrace digital transformation and automation, there is a growing demand for individuals proficient in handling advanced technologies. Recognizing this need, Ultech Engineering took a proactive step by organizing its first-ever 2-day DEIF Genset Controller Training on March 25-26, 2024, at Sarawak Skills, Kuching. This detailed coverage delves into the motivations behind the initiative, the collaborative efforts involved, the intricacies of the training program, and its impact on the participants and the community.
The inception of the DEIF Genset Controller Training can be traced back to the end of 2023, when Ultech Engineering embarked on a quest to identify avenues for fostering technological growth and business opportunities. With a vision to empower technology enthusiasts and equip them with cutting-edge skills, Ultech Engineering set its sights on DEIF controllers, renowned for their innovation and reliability. The primary objective was to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of DEIF controller technology and create a platform for networking and collaboration within the local tech community.
The success of any training initiative hinges on effective collaboration and partnerships. Ultech Engineering forged a strategic alliance with DEIF Singapore, its principal partner, which played a pivotal role in the planning and execution of the training program. DEIF Singapore's expertise and support were instrumental in shaping the curriculum and ensuring the delivery of high-quality training sessions. Additionally, in February 2024, Sarawak Skills emerged as a valuable partner, generously offering its premises for the training event. This collaborative effort underscored the shared commitment to fostering technical education and skill development in the region.
Before delving into the intricacies of the training program, it is essential to understand the legacy of DEIF (Danish Electro Instrument Factory). Founded in 1933 in Denmark, DEIF has been at the forefront of innovation in the instrumentation and control industry. Over the years, the company has expanded its product portfolio to encompass a wide range of applications, including Engine & Genset Controls, Switchboard Instrumentation, Bridge Instrumentation, and Renewable Energy Controls.
