I agree: even learning the standard by heart would leave one up a gum tree in a test lab. It's a totally different experience, starting with the visual examination (with Sherlock's lens). That usually results in a long list of potential violations to follow up before you even get to the advanced tests.

After the prerequisite work of setting up and qualifying a test lab separate 
from the design center, one must know and have experience with Type Testing 
that may have edge cases adrift in a sea of if/then/else/else/... engineering 
decisions. Type Tests for power conversion and ATEX stuff are essentially big 
bags of edge cases. The training requirement is nothing less than watching and 
participating in actual Type Tests that would apply to your category and class 
of equipment after classroom discussions covering the physics of test standard 
requirements.

Hi Kevin,

The Product Safety Engineering Society (PSES) is having our annual Symposium 
this month.  Many Product Safety and Certification subjects are on the program. 
 Including a 62368-1 Open forum with the guys that created it, implemented it 
and use it daily!!

Here's the link - http://www.psessymposium.org/pages/62368-1-open-forum

Subject: [PSES] Product Safety Testing and Evaluation training.
Hello I am looking recommendations for companies (preferably in North America) that can provide training in product safety testing and evaluation to engineers who are beginning their career.
Ideally the training would concentrate on IEC 62368-1
Kind regards Kevin
