What People Say
“Extremely impressed with instructor’s knowledge and presentation of info. Teaching of “What PID Is” to complete tuning was key. I knew what they were and how they worked but not how to fully get the most out of my loop tuning. Has given me the assurance and knowledge as well.”
“Really enjoyed the simulations and discussions of real problems or disturbances experienced in field. Instructor very good and knowledgable. Explanations on board were very helpful.”
“Tuning (software) capabilities could be used in practice immediately. Simulation exercises painted a good picture of what the real application will present. Got a great deal more out of applying instead of listening – then later trying to remember what was presented in class.”
