Industrial Control & Instrumentation Technician – ICIT
What is Industrial Control & Instrumentation?
Industrial Control and Instrumentation combines electrical control systems with process measurement systems. Students learn how motors, sensors, relays, contactors, transmitters, PLCs, and HMIs work together to operate industrial machines and processes.
Industrial Control and Instrumentationn are widely used in: Mining plants, Manufacturing industries, Water treatment systems, Food and beverage processing, Power plants, Oil and gas facilities.
Who needs this training?
Electricians, Instrumentation Technicians, Maintenance Personnel, Engineering Students, Fresh Graduates and Industrial Technicians
