Qualification for Our structured training course for PLC technicians is based on the requirements
PLC Technicians of the VDMA/ZVEI 1).
These requirements define what a skilled PLC technician needs to know and be able to do, regardless of the brand of PLC and from the point of view of the user.
Training can take the form of:
• distance learning,
• evening courses or
• daytime courses. Trainees can take an examination at the end of this training sequence. This normally takes one day and consists of a theory section and a practical section.
For further information, please see our ITC catalog or the special information sheet about training for PLC technicians. 1) Association of German Machine and Plant Manufacturers (VDMA) Association of the Electrical and Electronics Industry (ZVEI)
Upgrade PLC technicians who have completed their training with SIMATIC S5 can obtain a further qualification in an upgrade course dealing with the differences between SIMATIC S5 and SIMATIC S7.
