SITRAIN: Specific practice examples A steel manufacturer from Hagen, Germany, asked SITRAIN to provide a customized SIMATIC TDC training course. Divided up into three groups, the users of the multiprocessor systems were trained in a two-week long course by a SITRAIN lecturer. To enable the users to learn as practically as possible, all the equipment sections of the customer s medium-strip mill as well as the corresponding communication were simulated. Consequently, the employees could practise and consolidate their new knowledge. SITRAIN offers training on site - worldwide! Therefore SITRAIN arranged one of its trainers to hold a customized course for the Sibas 32 automation and control system in Atlanta, USA. Employees involved in different projects, from tramways to bucket dredgers, were grouped together and received a tailored training, including communication topics. The teaching equipment brought by the trainer could be used intensively for the practical exercises and assured the learning success of the course participants.
