PLC & SCADA Systems: Practical Workshop

Course Introduction

Delivered over five days, this workshop-based programme on PLC & SCADA Systems combines concise technical input with hands-on application. It is built around power, control and instrumentation systems, so examples, exercises and discussion stay relevant to participants' daily work.

Training Objectives

• 01Explain the core principles, terminology and standards behind PLC & SCADA Systems in clear, practical language
• 02Select and adapt suitable approaches to PLC & SCADA Systems for the constraints of power, control and instrumentation systems
• 03Diagnose weak spots in current practice and prioritise corrective action
• 04Use practical tools, checklists and templates that support day-to-day PLC & SCADA Systems
• 05Leave with a prioritised list of improvements you can start within 30 days

What You Will Take Away

• A structured inspection and reporting template
• Case-study notes drawn from regional plant experience
• A field-ready checklist you can use on your next job

Who Should Attend

• Electrical Engineers & Technicians
• Instrumentation Engineers
• Maintenance Electricians
• Plant Supervisors

Prerequisites: Open to all levels; participants are encouraged to bring a real work challenge.

Training Methodology

This is a hands-on workshop: short briefings followed by extended exercises, simulations and group activities, with most time spent applying rather than listening. Case material and examples are drawn from power, control and instrumentation systems.
