• Distance learning/E-learning

Introduction of design tools suitable for electronic devices and embedded software engineers that can be used immediately on-site. A manual that explains the purpose and usage of FMEA (DRBFM).

We hear voices such as 'Our client is asking us to conduct FMEA, but we don't know how to implement it' and 'Even when looking at the explanatory documents, we can't understand the specific steps.' Especially in the case of mechatronic devices like embedded systems, there are few implementation examples, so many engineers are struggling with these issues. A key concern is how to define software failure modes. How do we distinguish between bugs and failure modes? There are many unclear points that pose challenges in actual design environments. Additionally, in the case of embedded devices, since they operate in conjunction with hardware, we must also consider risks such as injuries or property damage in the market. ★ Therefore, we will clarify all the above issues and introduce effective implementation procedures and design tools for conducting FMEA.

• Technical Seminar

Examples of human resource development plans are also included! We will introduce how to promote practical education for young employees.

This document introduces practical education methods for young employees in small and medium-sized manufacturing companies. How can we "develop people before creating things"? I would like to think together about how to tackle this challenging issue. We will present examples regarding "challenges and methods of human resource development" as well as "methods of education by hierarchy," so please take a moment to read through it.
