DALI Training Questions

What is DALI training?

DALI training teaches you to design, install, program and maintain lighting using DALI — the Digital Addressable Lighting Interface, the open standard for lighting control. Our courses focus on DALI-2 and zencontrol, and take you from the fundamentals and wiring rules through to quoting a project, commissioning it and troubleshooting it on site.

Do I need experience before starting DALI training?

No. The Bronze BASE Course is a practical introduction built for electricians and entry-level integrators with no prior DALI experience. The Wireless Training course is the exception — it is advanced, and you need to have completed the Bronze Course first.

How long does DALI training take?

The Bronze Course is self-paced across 15 online modules, and most people are working as a system integrator in less than a week. The Wireless Training course is a four-hour in-person session.

Is the training online or in person?

The Bronze Course and Bronze BASE Course are online. After years of teaching them in person we recorded the full program, so you can take them from anywhere in Australia. Wireless Training and Maintenance Training are delivered in person.

How much does DALI training cost?

Courses run from $800 ex-GST for Maintenance Training up to $4,477 ex-GST for the Bronze Course, our flagship comprehensive integrator program. The Bronze BASE Course is $1,996 ex-GST and Wireless Training is $1,881.20 ex-GST.

Does the course include a training kit?

Yes. The Bronze Course includes a zencontrol DALI-2 training kit shipped within five business days of enrolling, and the Bronze BASE Course includes a kit valued at over $1,000. You keep the hardware and use it on real projects.
