Course Description
This is the best course in 2018 for detailed Rockwell Automation PLC training program like this before for the cost and I highly doubt that there will be anything close to this unless I am the one who makes it. Continuously raising the bar is my mission and I encourage you to join my journey.
As part of making this course the best, I will be adding revisions or videos from time to time to add more sections but as it sits right now there is over 20 hours of video training about RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 controls.
I have a very successful YouTube channel about PLC programming and run a website to assist with this effort as will which is Online PLC Support if you were to Google it.
Who this course is for:
Anyone looking to learn the complete setup and PLC controls in the RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 software
Example: May have some knowledge of PLCs but is looking to find out the details and the tricks of the trade.

I have a lifelong life of automation and have 18 years in the machinery automation industry with PLC control & HMI interfaces. Having been working with Rockwell Automation software for 16 years seeing the industry changes that make bold changes in building careers. This is why I started teaching automation, it is our future, it is our present, it is a requirement for growth in the world. I found that what I enjoy the most was to teaching people. I make sure I separate myself from the pack by only providing helpful and useful knowledge for anyone looking to better themselves. In other words, I use it for the good of helping people so it more of a trade to help out in another way.

Instruct is all over the place!!!

This is a straight-to-the-point course about Allen Bradley PLCs.
It lets you put your hands quickly on something new for you, allowing you to grasp the fundamental things.
Just in case you need something more evolved in particular, you can drill inside afterwards; but at least you can have the confidence to know that you can definitely start a project.

Clear and well thought out.

Some of the videos were not in the right order. Some were redundant. Him referring to his youtube, personal page and patreon account was extremely annoying. Some things were passed over while other trivial things were stressed too much. It would have been nice if the course was made specifically for this plantform and not reuse of videos that can be found elsewhere.

Hasta ahora se ve interesante y cubre muchos temas que otros cursos no.

it's one of the best PLC courses in Udemy, but lacks a lot of explanation, some instructions it put an example but doesn't explain the instruction itself.
By Bohanon Ferrisson III on 9/25/2020
This program is said to be for beginners. However, the instructor provides no baseline overview of how this system works. The topic is very dry and without first having some concept as to what we're working towards in these lectures, I've, thus far, found that it lacks a proper introduction. There's simply too much explanation of "How to use the tool" from a very technical level and not enough, "Here's what the tool does, what you can do with it and a high level of how to use it". I'm hopeful that this class soon gets better.

its not clearly visible there should be some zooming content while describing
By Savino Corradi on 9/22/2020
E' stato un corso interessante e mi ha introdotto molto bene nell'ambiente Rockwell. Grazie all'insegnate che stato esauriente nelle spiegazioni ed ha spiegato con passione tutti gli argomenti.
