During the three-day Certified Data Center Specialist (CDCS®) course at Vijfhart, you will deepen your technical understanding of modern data centers. Youll learn how to evaluate, optimize, and prepare a data center for future growth. This course is developed in collaboration with EPI, the global standard for data center services. By the end of the course, you will understand the complex relationships between infrastructure, safety, and reliability-and know how to apply this knowledge to ensure business continuity.
You will explore topics such as power supply, cooling, cabling, and (fire) safety in greater depth. In addition, youll learn about the data center design life cycle and how to assess and improve each phase effectively. You will gain insight into Tier levels for both design and maintenance, learn how to discuss detailed requirements with suppliers and vendors, read a Single Line Electrical Diagram, and ensure compliance with electromagnetic field standards and interference prevention.
You will be taught by experienced instructors from the field who work daily with data center design and infrastructure. They share their knowledge, real-world examples, and best practices-so you not only understand how things work in theory but also how to apply them in realistic professional situations. On the final day, youll take the globally recognized EXIN exam to earn your CDCS® certification. Are you participating virtually or unable to attend the final day on-site? Then you will receive an exam voucher to schedule your online exam at a convenient time.
