Abstract
Nowadays, most “high-tech” industries are operated and managed by computer-integrated automation systems. Industrialized countries must provide training facilities and continuing education, refresher courses and training programs -- to familialize older engineers and technicians who are already working in such industries with the latest computer and control system technology, and also train new employees in job-specific skills.
Training choices range from generalized academic training or supplementary courses to courses provided by manufacturers of computers and control systems. The latter are frequently more desirable, because trainees can learn to use job-related hardware and software. This paper introduces some typical course curricula suitable for continuing education and training in computerized automation.
