PLC Training in Dubai

About the PLC course in Dubai

PLC training in Dubai teaches you to program, test and troubleshoot programmable logic controllers on the two platforms most often found in UAE plants: Siemens TIA Portal and Allen-Bradley Studio 5000. You start with hardware and wiring, then write ladder logic, function block and structured text programs, handle analogue signals and build simple HMI screens. Troubleshooting with online monitoring and diagnostics is practised throughout. The course suits electrical and instrumentation engineers, maintenance technicians and graduates who want hands-on automation skills.

A PLC (programmable logic controller) is an industrial computer that reads inputs from sensors and switches, runs a control program and drives outputs such as motors, valves and lamps. PLCs are programmed in IEC 61131-3 languages such as ladder logic, function block diagram and structured text.

Our PLC training in Dubai is a 40 hours program available online, offline and hybrid, with batches on weekend and weekdays near Deira Clocktower. It suits electrical, electronics and instrumentation engineers and maintenance technicians who work with machines and plants. Sessions are led by a trainer and built around exercises you complete yourself, so you leave with work you can show. Learners often pair it with Cyber Security (OT) or VFD Training. Classroom learners come to Mabrooka Building 04 on Al Muraqqabat Road, a short walk from Al Rigga Metro Exit 2, and online learners follow the same syllabus live. You can compare every option under Industrial Automation courses. Ask a training advisor for the full module list, current fee and next start date.
