HOW ARE THE PROGRAMS DESIGNED? TERMS: Program: A program is the broad description of a curricula of courses. When it is designed to support the development of a learner over many years in their career, as in this case, it is made up of course levels with each level representing a certification. Course: A set of learning objects grouped by sections (including but not limited to the items below). • Theory Module: The key concepts and information that a learner needs to be introduced to, taken as either lecture or self-paced or on-line module. • How-to Video: A succinct video by an expert showing the completion of a task. • Hands-on Workshop: A key activity for the learner where task instructions and completions are very specific.

Portfolio Assessment: A collection of objective and alternative assessments. • Hands-On Workshop Skills Assessment: A timed and graded skills assessment to demonstrate ability. • Theory Assessment: A timed and graded knowledge assessment to demonstrate understanding.

LEARNING PATHS: To support multiple ‘entry-points’ for learners who have already gained related industry knowledge and technical experience different learning paths are possible. For example an individual who wants to begin by taking DVC Level 2 instead of Level 1 can do so by passing the DVC Level 1 portfolio assessment as a prerequisite.

SAMPLE CONTENT

THEORY MODULE:

Theory Module

HOW-TO VIDEO:

The key concepts and information that will prepare the learner to watch the how-to videos or carry out the hands-on workshops.

A succinct video by an expert showing the best-practice completion of a coding or review activity.

Theory modules are presented by an instructor or taken as selfpaced on-line modules.

These how-to videos are excellent examples to watch in advance of carrying out hands-on workshops and useful to use as reference materials for any especially detailed coding tasks.

WHAT DELTAV CODE BASE AND DOCUMENTATION SET IS USED? CAN THE TRAINING BE CUSTOMIZED TO OUR CODING STANDARDS?

The DeltaV code base used is to specifically training learners in the use of DeltaV for a Life Science industry context. In DVC Level 1 learners will configure a DeltaV control system and implement a control solution for a simple tank, comprising of Inlet and Outlet valves, a Mixing Pump, a Tank Level Indicator, and a Recirculation pump.

• Quality requirements • Input-Output and Loop drawings • Control Philosophy Document • General Design Specifications Document • Automation Functionals Specification Documents

FULLY GENERIC

• Client requirements

Theory Module How-To Video Hands-On Workshop

FULLY CUSTOM

The document set that the learner will use includes:

• Automation Design Specification Documents For companies that require their engineering personnel to become expert on a specific code base / documentation set used by their company then there are various customization options as illustrated by the image above. Reach out to us to discuss your needs and define a solution that will best benefit your organization and your learners.

HOW IS THIS TRAINING DEPLOYED AND WHAT IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE? This training is currently deployed as a classroom experience facilitated by an expert trainer. As the demand increases the content will be converted to be online theory modules and videos.
