What does this course cover? This five-day course covers a range of topics, all of which are covered via a mixture of theoretical and practical training – we aim for our courses to be as hands-on as possible. The course specifically covers: An introduction to SCADA systems, covering elements, servers, hardware and software, graphics, and more. A range of systems including automatic control, FIELDBUS, and wireless communication systems. An introduction to serial interfaces, ethernet networks, fibre optic, and wireless. Communications, including case studies to establish communication with PLCs. Process variables. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Remote Terminal Units (RTUs), sensors, and alarms. Introduction to OPC (open plan communications) How to configure OPC UA servers and how to program an OPC UA client Client and server development Connection management Security configuration Trends and historical data System components This course covers a wide range of industry-recognised manufacturers, including Siemens, Allen Bradley, Wago and Mitsubishi.) What will I gain from this course? Upon successful completion of this course, candidates will gain a City & Guilds certification in SCADA and PLC Communications.
The 5-Day Beginner Industrial Robotics Course is designed for individuals with little to no prior experience in robotics, offering a solid introduction to the fundamentals of industrial automation. This hands-on training program provides participants with the essential skills and knowledge to understand, operate, and program industrial robots, preparing them for real-world applications. Throughout the course, attendees will learn the basics of how robots work, including their key components, types, and movements. The course starts with an overview of industrial robots and their role in various industries, followed by essential safety protocols to ensure safe and effective robot operation. Practical sessions will allow participants to set up and perform simple robot tasks, building their confidence in controlling and programming robots. By the end of the 5-day training, beginners will have a clear understanding of how industrial robots function, how to program them for various tasks, and how to set them up safely. They will be equipped with the foundational skills needed to start a career in robotics or apply robotic solutions in their own industries, driving efficiency and automation.
This course provides learners with a good understanding of the technical requirements for surge protection for mains power, instrumentation, control, voice and data circuit installations. The course outlines the lightning protection and earthing principles on surge protection and discusses the surge protection requirements based on BS EN 62305 and BS 7671. Modules also consider the need for risk assessment for lightning and surge protection, sources of disturbance and damages caused by different risks and the importance of good earthing and main equipotential bonding. The course explores several examples of good and poor surge protection and the correct selection, installation, commissioning and monitoring of SPDs under different system earthing types.
Welcome to our Unvented Hot Water System Course!

Whether you are a plumber, heating engineer, or aspiring professional in the industry, this course will provide you with the expertise needed to excel in this specialized field.
This industrial electrical maintenance course is designed to enable candidates who have a small amount of electrical knowledge to gain recognised qualifications and skills to enable them to enter an industrial environment and work as a industrial electrician. The industrial electrical maintenance course will include a large amount of practical, enabling the candidate to install, fault find, design and wiring up control panels, using a variety of different methods. Industrial electrical maintenance course aims The aim of the industrial electrical maintenance course is to provide solid foundations upon which the participant will be able to build and develop. Emphasis is given to providing the necessary skills, which will allow the participant to carry out routine electrical tasks. It is also made clear that a participant needs to identify and know their own limitations, allowing tasks to be carried out in a safe manner, not giving rise to danger. If your looking for industrial electrician training this course is for you.
The UK has set an ambitious 2050 Net Zero Carbon target. A fundamental part of the Net Zero Carbon strategy is to change from gas heating systems to cleaner electrified heat. This course aims to equip those involved in forming energy strategies, planning developments, new building projects, refurbishment projects on how electrified heat can be correctly applied. Whilst a major focus of the course is on heat pumps the course also considers other options for electrified heating and what the components are for all these heating system options. The course also details building fabric considerations, electrical system requirements and addresses the issue of using electrified heat to generate hot water for domestic purposes.
