Training Objectives • Skill & competency development

• Empower students to be to successfully embark on their careers in industrial automation

• To fill the skill-gap that exists between the industry needs and expectations and students emerging out of engineering courses

Student Expectations

Students seek expanding career opportunities and aspire to find placement in growing companies. They are conscious

of the fact that under the existing economic conditions job aspirants out number job

opportunities. They also are acutely aware that they need to have the necessary skills

required by the industry.

Industry Needs

Industrial companies, such as electric power plants, cement plants, refineries,

pharmaceuticals, automotive, metals and mining plants (large industrial verticals in

India), automation supplier, system integrator, engineering, and information

technology companies need skilled automation professionals

Industry Expectations

Both end user and automation companies expect the engineers

emerging after successfully completing the course must possess the necessary skills required to perform the tasks and

duties

Competencies may incorporate a skill, but are MORE than the skill,

they include abilities and behaviors, as well as knowledge that is fundamental to the use of

a skill
