High-level training of professionals linked to the lighting sector, from the hand of expert teachers, and promotion of LED technology are the main objectives of the Lighting Training Center, created by Aniled y Echo, in which online and in-person courses will also be taught through this platform, technical training days, etc. to improve the knowledge of users in this sector.

La iniciativa de estas instituciones parte de la experiencia en esta industria y la constante evolución que está experimentando la iluminación, con nuevas tecnologías cada vez más eficientes energéticamente y convergentes con sistemas de control, así como normativas de calidad e instalación, para lo cual la formación es fundamental. For this reason, LTC pretende ser “una herramienta al servicio de los más de los 100.000 profesionales del sector de la iluminación, con el fin de que consigan la mejor formación para desarrollar su trabajo”.

This problem will increase in the future because, currently, "Training programs are not enough to meet the needs of the LED industry.".

For Emilio Pérez, director of Aido, “This new tool is a pioneering channel that helps us continue with this training work, in which Aido has been offering its advisory services to SMEs in the lighting sector for more than twenty-five years and developing activities as specific as optical and product design., ensayos de caracterización fotométrica de luminarias y sistemas de iluminación, simulaciones ópticas, software de cálculo de iluminación, así como el desarrollo de proyectos de I+D”.

LTC iniciará su actividad formativa el próximo 16 de junio con el curso “Aplicaciones prácticas de tecnología Led en iluminación”, con una duración de 32 hours, cuyas inscripciones ya están abiertas.
