I enjoyed this course but I think personally i might have needed more training to fully understand the subject.
Course provided a good overview of programming PLCs including the basic principles of logic and programming. There were aspects which were mentioned and not covered, i.e. use of the pneumatic rig to demonstrate PLC control. Elliot is very knowledgeable and very familiar with interfacing with PLCs and the software, which is the area I was most interested in. I did have a question relating to a PLC I am familiar with regarding BTW, BTR commands in Allen Bradley which he was unfamiliar with. Some aspects of the course were, in my eyes, taught in quite confusing way, for example number base systems. The lunch was okay for myself but nothing special. One of my colleagues however had his dietary requirements disregarded on two separate occasions.
Very good course, I was happy with the basics early on and would of liked to explore more complex areas of the program if time allowed. Elliot was very helpful throughout.
specified i wanted training on TIA siemens, was told over the phone that will be tailored for, never looked at TIA
The training sessions were very disorganised and i had to constantly prompt the trainer to cover the topics for the course i had booked. The trainer was constantly cutting the sessions short and did not seem to have the knowledge to cover the topics of the intermediate course i had been booked on.
Course was good to grasp the basic steps in PLC . however the systems used were older than the ones currently in place and would have been good to deal with the new systems at some point in the 5 day course. the 10 day apparently has time for these
I really enjoyed the course and learned loads, I now feel confident to begin to code my own programs and fault-find them. Mo was able to answer all my questions and has a very good knowledge of PLCs. I particularly liked having access to TIA16 and a real PLC. I intend to look into a further course if available to further my knowledge.
Good facilities, pleasant staff, experienced lecturer, classroom required more equipment to enable all students to work on same equipment at same time, or smaller class size.
Overall the course was enjoyable. Hopefully it will be beneficial to me in the workplace. The computer kept crashing and freezing, as the course is reliant on them it could be worth investing in better equipment. But asides that I would recommended as a introduction to PLC Programming.
