Partnership launches online micro-courses on connectivity and sensor technologies

RS Components has partnered with TE Connectivity to launch the TE Learning Centre on DesignSpark. The courses will allow designers and engineers to achieve a fast overview of many advanced products, technologies and solutions. The TE Learning Centre gives easy access to a host of interactive online micro-courses. Created to speed engineers’ knowledge and understanding, the bite-sized sessions last between 5-10 minutes long and offer information on a variety of different technologies and applications, as well as giving several product-specific tutorials. Also, available within each course are additional resources that allow engineers to go much deeper into a subject if required. The library of micro-courses already available in the centre comprises tutorials on pressure sensors; USB Type-C receptacles; micro-motor connectors; wire markers; straight and right-angle connectors; heat-shrink tubing; and circular hybrid connectors, among many others. The library will be augmented with new courses being added regularly. 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.”
