GIL 145 SCADA, HMI & DCS I – Fundamentals                                                             (5 DAYS)

OVERVIEW:

 This class is an introductory course, which aims to build a good understanding about the basics of SCADA, DCS and HMI. A special emphasis on real life implementations, case studies and international standards would ensure participants to co-relate the theory with their day-to-day practice. The class training will be complemented by class workshops, discussion on industry best practices. Students will be issued a certificate at the end of the training.

TRAINING FOR:

Instrumentation, Electrical, Mechanical and Process Engineers, Project Engineers, Maintenance Engineers and Supervisors interested to work in the field of SCADA and HMI. The course will also definitely be beneficial for other department people concerned with the plant operations, production, maintenance and safety. It could be useful for the procurement and quality personnel.
