City and Guilds – Programmable Logic Controllers reviews

4.6 (271 reviews)
AI summary of reviews

Hands-on PLC rigs and live examples make the learning easy to understand, attendees say, while knowledgeable, patient tutors explain concepts clearly and support questions across different ability levels. They value the structured progression from basics to practical projects, useful handouts and a friendly atmosphere. The course builds confidence in ladder logic and small automation programmes that transfer to workplace tasks, although some find the pace brisk and want more time for exercises.

I think the amount to learners in the class was too high , in week 1 we had 12 , week 2 had 11. With this course being intensive there should be less people in each class so the tutor is able to have more one on one time with people that need extra guidance.

Very good course. The dockets given out could include a little more information for beginners such as how to set up self resetting timers and how to kill circuits.

Course was good and I feel I have learnt a lot. I started with no understanding of PLC programming and feel now I have grasped the basics! I do however feel the number of pupils in the class was too high as a bit more one to one time with the tutor would be more beneficial.

Excellent course delivered by a tutor with an extremely high level of knowledge of the subject. All the staff at technique were friendly and approachable. Whilst many centers seek to produce PLC courses where the exercises are designed using actual hardware situations I found that working through the exercises simply with basic switches and LED's much more useful. No awkward mechanical issues to deal with on top of the programming. Thoroughly enjoyed this course, I will be bugging my company to send me for more.

Would be easier if it focused on one software per day / week so all students are on the same software at the same time. Apart from that was spot on. Thanks.
