RFID / NFC MOOC with hands-on exercises

Discover how simple it is to extend and improve your IoT application using NFC


Enroll for our NFC MOOC (massive open online course) with hands-on exercises 

Who should attend this workshop ?

Engineers looking to rapidly develop new ways for objects to communicate with each other and to gain some real experience with NFC solutions.

Discover how NFC technology can improve the way objects can communicate with smartphones or other NFC devices to exchange data, connect to the internet or pair with other media in a simple and affordable way.

Benefits you will take away

  • Solid overview of NFC technologies, capabilities and constraints
  • Understanding of NFC data structures and encoding
  • Demonstration of ST products within a complete NFC system

Courses are provided in MOOC format with course material available online, mostly as videos.

All throughout the course, a technical expert will be available online to provide help and answer your questions.

Each course takes approximately 6 to 7 hours to complete, depending on your proficiency, and must be completed within one week.
