Introduction

We believe that leaders are more “made” than “born.” Current leadership research indicates that there are few genetic characteristics that influence one’s ability to become a leader. Our role in the program is not to teach one how to become a leader, but to help one learn how to become a more effective leader. From our perspective, leadership is a life-long journey. This course can help you acquire the knowledge, skills, feedback, and opportunities necessary for personal growth.

The program focuses on individual development and is based on the belief that individuals can expand their leadership capacities; they can learn, grow, and change.

The format for the program includes discussion, readings, group activities, and pairing with a mentor. This program is intended to provide advanced engineering aspects of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). Emphasis shall be laid on topics relevant to Programmable Logic Controllers programming and troubleshooting.

Operation, characteristics and selection of Programmable Logic Controllers will be studied. Also, features and applications of SCADA systems will be explored. SCADA systems architecture, their interface to the process hardware will be demonstrated. Extensive practical examples will be examined using PLC system.
