I. Become Process Control Technician
BECOME PROCESS CONTROL AND AUTOMATION TECHNICIAN
This is a certified 6-in-1 course offered by Downtime Reduction School. It includes the following courses:
- Electrical Fundamentals
- Industrial Electronics
- Process Controls
- Instrumentation
- Robotics/Pneumatic
- Machine Vision
Every course and its units have quizzes that you will need to take. You will be studying and learning courses all by yourself. Upon finishing the study you will be taking a “close book” exam in our Manufacturing School. Upon getting over 75% correct answers you will get a certificate of Process Control & Automation Technician specifying that you have completed theoretical part of the Process Control Automation & Instrumentation Course and ready to take a practical course on the subjects as listed above.
- All course material consists of slide shows presentations and videos discussing all important parts of every topic.
- Below are the units and topics you will be studying and learning:
