Omron offers free e-learning options
The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing many people to work from home. While this may be disruptive for some, it also presents outstanding opportunities for online learning. To that end, Omron is now offering a range of free electronic learning (e-learning) courses. There are 50 courses available in total.
Most have been translated into 13 different languages, including Chinese, Korean, Indonesian and Vietnamese.
The courses cover a wide range of topics, including sensing, safety, control components, automation, motion and drives. Each course occupies a small footprint of network bandwidth and will take 60–90 minutes to complete. Most courses also provide additional resources for further learning.
The learning is self-paced and a quick quiz is provided at the end of each section to test learning.
Users can register for a free e-learning course at https://omronlearning.com/#/login.
Omron is also offering a range of free technical guides that explain the operating principles behind many of the most commonly used automation products. The guides are in PDF format and cover technical aspects and internal workings. They are available at: http://www.ia.omron.com/support/guide/index.html.
Users can also learn about the basics of building a control panel at http://www.omron.com.au/solution/panel/article/article_000207.html.
So, whether you’re already in the industry, have a passing interest in manufacturing or automation, or just looking for a learning opportunity, Omron is sure you will find something that’s right for you.
