Questions and answers

The process specialist training for the Federal Diploma of Higher Education usually takes three to four semesters while working. The training institutes will provide information on the exact duration. Those who pass the Federal Professional Examination are awarded the federal certificate and protected designations.

The process specialist training concludes with a Federal Diploma of Higher Education and is therefore federally recognized.
