From Zero to Hero in Industrial Data Engineering
For engineers who aren't programmers — but want to build it themselves. 14 modules, 143 micro-learnings, one certification.
Is This You?
This program is built for one specific person:
Richard — Plant Engineer
Van Excel naar Grip
45 years old, utility plant. 20 years of operations experience. Never wrote a line of code. Frustrated with Excel chaos, Aspentech/PI licenses (€125K-€180K/year), and no overview of the whole picture.
Plant engineer, OT specialist, or operations manager
Stuck with Excel, expensive licenses, and manual processes
Centralise plant data and eliminate the Excel chaos
"I'm not a programmer — where do I even start?"
Saving €125K-€180K/year in licenses after completing the program
Marco — PLC/SCADA Engineer
Van Silo naar Centraal
38 years old, system integrator. Works with Siemens, Allen-Bradley and Beckhoff. Wants to build a reusable data-integration framework he can offer as a premium service.
PLC programmer, SCADA engineer, or OT system integrator
Every client is a one-off, no reusable framework, vendor lock-in
Build a repeatable platform he can deploy at any client
"Will customers pay for this instead of Wonderware?"
Earning €47.5K-€95K/year more with premium integration services
