PLC-based Training Models

Making sure your PLC training works - PLC-based Training Models

Making it Work back on-site
We all know that the key to successfully mastering what we learn on a course is to put the skills into practice as soon as possible & have a plan to keep them live.

Most often people attend PLC & Electrical courses in preparation for the day on-site when that knowledge & skill will be required, often in a breakdown situation. The problem is, if the knowledge & skills have not been kept live, people "go rusty", confidence slips & people are unsure.

PLC Training Models
To help companies & their people build on the knowledge & skills gained through training, we offer a range of Practical Training Models. People can practice the majority of the Key Practical Skills, in a safe environment away from any dangers of working on live plant & so build confidence & skill.

Learning Support Packs (LSPs)
It is possible to just purchase just the Training Model hardware & get your own people to write the PLC software or, if your people are not expected to write PLC software as part of their job (as is usually the case for maintenance people), it is possible to add one or more of the LSPs, which best suit the needs of your people, & get them underway without delay.

Workbooks to record progress
Each LSP is supported by an electronic Workbook allowing people to structure their thinking when tackling the work & to record the evidence of what they achieve. The Workbooks assume the user will have had at least basic level training on the particular PLC.

THREE different LSPs are available
Getting Started - for less confident or experienced users.
Fault-finding Skills - to practice PLC Fault-finding.
Programming Skills - where people are required to undertake small program modifications to improve machine performance or as a temporary workaround.
