What sets us apart?
Data centres are at the heart of everyday life.
They’re essential because they power the digital infrastructure behind everything from online services and cloud storage to business operations and global communication, ensuring seamless data access and connectivity.
Because they’re so essential, their energy efficiency is crucial; without it, the environmental impact can be significant.
Our mission is to teach you how to operate technology responsibly, reducing your environmental footprint while boosting efficiency, and wherever possible using the most advanced technology. We can also provide suggestions on new advances in data centre technology, such as the emerging applications of “digital twins”.
Our training facilities give you hands-on experience with both traditional and cutting-edge data centre setups, making learning both practical and engaging.
We offer courses tailored to different needs and experience levels – whether you’re new to data centres and want to grasp the basics, aiming to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability, or eager to explore the latest technologies, we’ve got you covered.
No matter what your goals are, we’re here to support your growth and career development.
We also believe in the power of collaboration. That’s why we open our facilities to everyone, including other training providers, to create a vibrant, learning-focused community.
