Course Overview

The PLC & SCADA Automation Training (Beginner to Advanced) by Siemens is a comprehensive program designed for automation engineers, control system technicians, and industrial programmers seeking mastery in Siemens-based automation solutions. This course prepares learners for the Siemens Certified Programmer - SIMATIC S7 with TIA Portal certification, a globally recognized credential validating expertise in programming, configuring, and commissioning Siemens PLC systems. Ideal for professionals aiming to work in manufacturing, energy, or process automation, the training aligns with industry demands—over 70% of Fortune 500 manufacturing firms use Siemens TIA Portal for their automation infrastructure. Participants gain structured knowledge from foundational concepts to advanced programming techniques, ensuring readiness for real-world industrial challenges.

Students engage with core Siemens technologies including SIMATIC S7-1200/1500 PLCs, TIA Portal software, WinCC HMI, PROFIBUS/PROFINET communication protocols, and SINAMICS drives. The hands-on lab component is conducted in the Siemens TIA Portal engineering environment, where learners configure CPU parameters, set up distributed I/O systems, and integrate HMI visualization for process monitoring. A key project involves building a fully functional automated conveyor system using Ladder Logic, Function Block Diagrams, and Structured Control Language (SCL), incorporating safety logic and data handling via complex data types. These labs simulate actual plant environments, enabling students to troubleshoot live faults, optimize cycle times, and implement modular, reusable code structures essential for scalable automation solutions.

This training directly prepares candidates for the Siemens Certified Programmer certification, which is acknowledged across 180+ countries by Siemens partners, OEMs, and system integrators as proof of technical proficiency. Certified professionals report average salary increases of 20–30%, with mid-level automation engineers earning between $85,000 and $110,000 annually in North America and Europe. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official Siemens courseware, and optional 1-on-1 mentoring to ensure exam success. Upon completion, graduates are equipped to lead automation projects, reduce system downtime, and advance into roles such as Senior Automation Engineer, SCADA Systems Designer, or Plant Integration Specialist in global industrial operations.
