BACnet training for companies, designers and consultants

Specialised training for companies that want to get the most from Data Controls products, as well as for designers and consultants who need to prepare effective technical specifications and tender documents.

LEARN TO USE BACNET, THE STANDARD COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL FOR BUILDING AUTOMATION

BACnet, which stands for Building Automation and Control Networks, is the global ISO 16484-5 standard for communication between automation devices.

The protocol ensures interoperability, vendor independence and seamless communication between systems produced by different manufacturers.

Used across applications ranging from HVAC to security and access control, BACnet is essential for designing systems that require full interoperability and operational flexibility.

Data Controls training provides the technical foundations and know-how required to use BACnet and design intelligent, interconnected systems.

WHO IS BACNET TRAINING FOR?

BACnet training for companies

A programme designed for technical teams, Facility Managers and organisations that want to manage smart buildings independently. The goal is to maximise the effectiveness of Data Controls products, reduce consumption and improve operational continuity.

BACnet training for designers

Designed for engineers and system integrators working with complex hardware and software architectures, often across multiple sites. We provide the skills required to ensure full interoperability between HVAC, security, access-control and lighting systems, overcoming the limitations of proprietary technologies.

BACnet training for consultants

Ideal for professionals responsible for defining rigorous technical specifications and preparing effective tender documentation. The course provides the tools needed to ensure proposed projects meet the highest international standards of vendor independence and operational flexibility.

COURSES

ALL AVAILABLE BACNET COURSES

Structured training programmes designed for different levels of technical expertise and specific operational or design requirements.

Foundation course

Ideal for anyone approaching BACnet for the first time. The foundation course introduces the fundamentals of Building Automation, interoperability and BACnet protocol architecture.

Participants learn key terminology such as points, classes and functional levels, how software objects are used, and how BACnet supports building management as a whole.

Advanced course

Designed for professionals who want to deepen their BACnet expertise, including technical topics such as multi-site network design and management of complex architectures.

Topics include BACnet integration with IT environments, device-profile management and the development of customised projects using B-PAT files.

Custom course

Tailored to specific client requirements, this course is intended for corporate teams, designers and consultants who need targeted training.

Data Controls addresses the specific requirements of each project and provides detailed support for drafting tender documentation and technical specifications.

FAQ

Who are the BACnet courses designed for?

Our training programmes are designed for designers, system integrators, consultants and end-user organisations that want to acquire or strengthen their knowledge of the BACnet protocol and Building Automation.

How do I choose between the foundation, advanced and custom BACnet courses?

The right course depends on your operational objectives and starting level. The foundation BACnet course introduces the core concepts of the protocol and Building Automation. The advanced BACnet course covers key technical topics such as complex-network design, IT-system integration and customised project development. The custom BACnet course is designed entirely around the organisation’s specific needs, adapting both content and level of detail.

Where are BACnet courses held?

Course locations are flexible to accommodate organisational requirements. Training can be delivered at our offices, directly at the client’s premises, at partner training centres or at other locations agreed on a case-by-case basis.

Are there technical prerequisites for taking part in a BACnet course?

Participants should have a basic understanding of what a BMS, control system and integrated system are. The foundation course is suitable for those approaching BACnet for the first time. Advanced programmes require previous knowledge of the protocol or relevant industry experience. In every case, we assess the starting level of individual participants and the group as a whole in advance so that the training can be calibrated effectively.

Can the training include real-life cases or the client’s own systems?

Absolutely. Our programmes combine theory and practice, applying BACnet training to real scenarios. During the sessions we analyse practical examples and specific system dynamics to make learning easier and ensure the protocol can be applied immediately in real operational contexts.
