Course Overview

The Studio 5000 Logix Designer Level 2: Basic Ladder Logic Programming (CCP151) course by Rockwell Automation is designed for control systems programmers, automation engineers, and maintenance technicians who are responsible for programming Logix5000 controllers using the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application. This instructor-led training builds foundational skills in creating and testing ladder logic programs for industrial automation applications. Participants will learn to program timer and counter instructions, implement compare, move, and math operations, and separate equipment control from production procedures. With Rockwell Automation’s technology deployed across over 80% of Fortune 500 manufacturing facilities, this skill set is in high demand across automotive, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods industries.

Students engage with key Rockwell Automation tools including Studio 5000 Logix Designer®, Studio 5000 Logix Emulate, FactoryTalk View SE, and RSLinx Classic software during hands-on lab exercises. Using a simulated ABT-TDCLX3-B workstation environment, learners configure real-world control sequences such as timed batch processes and automated machine cycles. A core project involves building a complete ladder logic program that uses sequencers to run equipment through predefined procedures while isolating procedural logic from hardware control. These practical exercises are performed under guided instruction, allowing students to test and debug their logic in a risk-free simulation environment that mirrors actual plant floor conditions.

This course prepares learners for advanced Rockwell Automation certifications and supports career progression toward roles such as Senior PLC Programmer or Automation Specialist, positions that command average salaries between $82,000 and $98,000 annually—up to 14% higher than non-certified peers. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning path with Guaranteed-to-Run classes, official Rockwell Automation courseware, and access to expert instructors for personalized guidance. Upon completion, graduates are positioned to pursue complex automation projects, contribute to Industry 4.0 initiatives, and lead digital transformation efforts in modern manufacturing environments.
