January 9, 2008 - Montreal, Canada

Academia RFID's team of academic leaders, courseware developers and accredited RFID instructors, have announced the launch of a new RFID certification; RFID PRO. A university-level, business-infused, technical certification, Academia's RFID PRO is designed specifically for Operation Managers, Engineers, Directors, RFID consultants, IT Directors and System Integrators looking for industry-recognized training and professional accreditation.

RFID PRO, a response to the overwhelming demands for a business-perspective-approach to RFID Technology training and certification, has been developed over 1 year and will be bi-annually revised, improved and updated. Ygal Bendavid, Academic Director at Academia RFID, said: "This certification strays from 'technology for technology's sake' and focuses on business problem solving, process reengineering, implementation and scalability. We've surveyed end-users and reached out to technology providers to create content that not only presents what's possible but more importantly what's proven…."

A three day course held in-lab or on-site, offered globally in English, French or Spanish and accredited by an international network of University Professors and Industry Associations, the RFID PRO certification's objective is to provide professionals with the tools necessary to evaluate a project's scope, design and develop a solution and implement RFID technology to solve business problems and create value for their organizations, suppliers and customers.

Pre-requisites: at least 2 years experience working in RFID technology and/or the CompTIA RFID+ Certification. For more info: please visit www.RFIDacademia.com
