In the 21st century, there has been unprecedented growth in automation and control systems and the demand for people to design, install and maintain these systems has never been higher. The Automation Technician program was developed in direct response to industry demand for people with broad skills and knowledge in areas including digital electronics and process control, and who also have programming skills in areas such as PLCs, Robotics, and SCADA systems.

The program has been developed for adult learners pursuing training through independent study, specifically students who cannot attend college full-time because of work or family commitments. No background in Automation is required and there are no post-secondary academic prerequisites, so anyone can get training in this rapidly-growing industry. The program includes eighteen modules of interactive curriculum using text, video, 2D and 3D animations, photos, audio clips and interactive lab simulations. Pre-tests, interactive exercises, sample exams, and online support prepare you for computer-based final exams. The average completion time of the eighteen training modules is thirty-two weeks of part-time study.
