The annual Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC 2022) announces this year’s slate of Professional Education Seminars. Delivered by electronics professionals and academics and covering a range of topics, the seminars are designed to provide practicing power electronics engineers a deep dive into subjects critical to their design activities. Professional Education Seminars are divided into five tracks, each comprising three sessions. Session One and Session Two are scheduled for Sunday, March 20th, and Session Three for Monday morning, March 21st, prior to the opening of the APEC 2022 conference and exhibition in Houston. Detailed speaker, time and location information about each session can be found on the APEC 2022 website.
Here is a summary of the tracks and scheduled session topics for the APEC 2022 Professional Education Seminars:
