KNX certification · Delivered in the UAE
KNX Basic Certification (Foundation)
Smart-ready is fast becoming the default for new property in the UAE, and KNX is the global standard behind it. This four day foundation takes you from the basics of smart buildings to designing and commissioning a KNX system in ETS6, and shows you exactly what smart-ready adds to a property's value. Your route to the official KNX certificate.
Registration for the next cohort is open now.
Face to face lab and exam seats are limited.
KNX Foundation is a certification in smart building automation, covering KNX architecture, ETS6 and KNX Secure. ThinkProp delivers the 26-hour course over four days in the UAE.
Buyers and tenants in the UAE increasingly expect smart homes, and developers are building smart-ready as standard, yet most real estate and building professionals cannot speak to how it works or what it is worth. KNX is the worldwide standard for building automation. This foundation gives you the technical grounding to understand, design and commission a basic KNX system, and the commercial grounding to explain what smart-ready does for property value.
