HMI & SCADA Technician
What is Industrial Communication, HMI and SCADA?
HMI and SCADA systems are used in mining plants, manufacturing industries, water treatment systems, food and beverage processing, power plants, and oil and gas facilities. They allow operators to monitor equipment, view alarms, control processes, record data, and communicate with PLCs, drives, and field instruments.
Who needs this training?
Electricians, Instrumentation Technicians, Maintenance Personnel, Engineering Students, Fresh Graduates and Industrial Technicians
