Online Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Training Course

Modern production processes across virtually all manufacturing industries rely heavily on automation to maximize operational efficiency, lower operational costs, and reduce error rates. This program equips professionals with advanced expertise in programming and configuring programmable logic controller systems. Designed specifically for technical specialists, technicians, and engineers, the curriculum empowers learners to construct reliable control programs for automated industrial robots, specialized machinery, and complex manufacturing plants.

The curriculum systematically leads participants through the foundational principles of control engineering into advanced PLC operation and architecture. Key subject areas encompass STEP 7 command sets, digital control technology, logic operations, memory behaviors, pulse timing, and counter processes. In addition, participants explore flowcharts, jump operations, signal processing, operational safety protocols, and both continuous and discontinuous controllers, ensuring comprehensive command of industrial programming routines.

Delivered via flexible distance learning, the program integrates comprehensive study booklets with digital access through the online learning center. Practical competence is fostered through the included TrySim simulation software, allowing learners to test and troubleshoot PLC programs directly on their personal computers. Individual academic support from qualified subject instructors, regular webinars, graded assignments, and an optional six-month study extension ensure a thorough educational experience culminating in an institutional certificate with an optional English version.

Admission requires a completed vocational qualification alongside solid foundational knowledge in mathematics, natural sciences, and control engineering. Applicants must have access to a standard computer with an active internet connection to run the simulation software and access course materials. Enrollment can be completed directly online, beginning with an obligation-free four-week trial period.
