Industrial Networks

Industrial Networks training

As industrial networks move from proprietary networks to IP-based networks, those responsible for developing and maintaining these networks are faced with the considerable challenge of managing the underlying complexity and scope of technologies that were developed for the IT world.

This program is for individuals who wish to enhance their knowledge and understanding of the role that Ethernet/IP-based data transport plays in industrial systems, such as manufacturing automation and power utility protection and control.

No Information Technology pre-knowledge is required. This training is aimed at the graduate technologist or engineer in the industrial control and power utility professions.

The graduate will have a strong foundational knowledge of networking technologies and understand the implications of standards (both industry and legislated) on system reliability, safety, and cybersecurity. Industry feedback indicates a growing need for industrial engineering professionals to have a stronger understanding of network technologies and how these technologies influence their roles and responsibilities.

Who Should Attend?

This course is designed to meet the needs and experience level of Automation Engineers responsible for managing today’s Ethernet-based industrial networks.

The course also provides a good platform for those wishing to continue their training to become Cisco-certified and/or Hirschmann-certified.
