The intensive use of H2 as an energy vector is already a reality, causing a growing demand for professionals in this field, creating a good opportunity, both for experienced professionals and for new technicians. AIMEN and VanguardLand Innova unify their extensive expertise, offering a different course, characterized by a conciliatory program, combining a virtual classroom with a practical day, seeking to adapt to both active professionals and those in training. The in-person session will be taught at the facilities of the AIMEN Technology Center, where key content taught in the course will be shown in a practical way, such as material compatibility, explosiveness simulation, etc.
