SCALE launches an e-course for public authorities on smart charging
SCALE is launching a three-module e-course designed specifically for public authorities.
This comprehensive course, coordinated by Rupprecht Consult, will equip participants with a solid understanding of the essential concepts, cutting-edge technologies, and strategic approaches needed to implement efficient and sustainable smart charging infrastructure in cities and regions.
Starting strong with a kickoff webinar
In the kick-off webinar will start with a brief introduction to the SCALE Project, followed by an introduction to the e-course and its relevance for public authorities in building knowledge on smart charging. Next, they will provide an overview of the course content and its various units, along with detailed instructions on how to get the most out of the course and meet the certification requirements by participating in discussion forums and completing short assignments. Lastly, they will offer a step-by-step registration guide for those who have not yet registered.
