In Europe the free-of-charge LonMark Sessions Roadshow will visit Copenhagen, followed by Tallinn, Riga, Budapest, Prague, Ljubljana, Milan, Amsterdam, London, Manchester, Krakow, Moscow, Kiev, Paris, Frankfurt, Madrid, Barcelona, Geneva and Zurich.

The LonMark Sessions Roadshow is being hosted by TEMA Technologie Marketing in co-operation with LonMark International.

Capitalising on the success of the 2005 tour (Building Open Systems 2005) which had over 4000 registrants, the LonMark Sessions 2007 will visit 57 cities in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

The tour is part of the LonMark Sessions Initiative, a global educational program that aims to help the controls and automation industries continue the transition from proprietary to open, integrated systems.

The tour will focus on: energy savings; improving efficiencies through system integration; maintenance, operating and training cost reductions; leveraging convergence with the IT infrastructure; successful projects and market trends; and much more.

The seminars will highlight the successful use and penetration of LonMark open systems and demonstrate the value of LonMark certified products and professionals in the market place.

Facility professionals around the globe are encouraged to attend.

The seminars are designed to help professionals make the successful transition to truly open, interoperable control systems and are aimed at building owners, managers, architects and stake holders as well as engineers, system integrators and specifiers.

The seminars are free of charge and participants will have the chance to experience a live, online technology demonstration featuring LonMark certified devices that demonstrate a complete, integrated building solution.

Participants will also have the opportunity to take the new LonMark Certified Professional examination at each location.

This exam sets the standard for professional competency for engineers and integrators working with open, control systems.
