City and Guilds – Programmable Logic Controllers reviews

4.6 (271 reviews)
AI summary of reviews

Hands-on PLC rigs and live examples make the learning easy to understand, attendees say, while knowledgeable, patient tutors explain concepts clearly and support questions across different ability levels. They value the structured progression from basics to practical projects, useful handouts and a friendly atmosphere. The course builds confidence in ladder logic and small automation programmes that transfer to workplace tasks, although some find the pace brisk and want more time for exercises.

Some pre-course notes sent prior to the course would be beneficial. My own failing was I did not have enough PLC incite prior to attending

I do feel as though a few topics were rushed over causing us at points to be ahead of the schedule even though personally I would've benefited from covering the topics more in depth and keeping in time with the schedule.

The course is useful and the tutor is very knowledgeable. At each stage of questioning i felt like i understood the topic better. I think the course content could have been sped up. I would've liked more time to complete all the exercises, including the really challenging ones. The use of the software is most enjoyable on these challenging problems. perhaps the afternoon session after the 3rd break could be solely focused on completing the challenging programs. I think it was useful to have the physical systems to work on. This is definitely valuable. However would've preferred some more focus on seeing other systems and code. For example, the tutor could show us a video of a system and how his code facilitated it's operation. Other than that the course was perfect.

Great facilities and a great attitude towards learning, I would like to have seen more examples of the key parts of PLC programming, It was quite difficult to get information from the tutor when struggling on a specific topic, I believe he was making me think for myself as he knew the answer was at my fingertips. A method that eventually worked well.
