The course went quite well and I would have been more satisfied if the logic had been explained in the Factory IO Ladder programming
By Hue Jun Yeen on 5/21/2024
good course, though, the program files can't be downloaded (plc ladder programs for factory I/O)

He aprendido muchos temas interesantes sobre los PLC, formando una buena base desde la cuál comenzar a programarlos. El material es bueno y abundante, sin embargo está todo en inglés.

Me parece muy acertado iniciar con un panorama de los origenes e inicios de los PLC

Hi, according to my point of view, the rating request would come near the end of the course progress , NOT AFTER THE FIRST 3 LESSONS. That was my reason I gave you just one star in my rating. But guess what "I did not evaluate correctly" according to your replay... Sorry, but that was the reason FOR REAL! I do not like leasons where the simple slides reading would be consider "good enough" or "reasonable". I DO NO CONSIDER IT GOOD ENOUGH, do you undersand? But, once you edited your protest and gave a tone more reasonable I decided o change my rating, just because you did that firts... But I reafirme it: ASK FOR A COURSE RATING AFTER JUST 3 LESSONS MAKE NO SENSE!!! THE EVALUATION REQUEST SHOULD COME NEAR THE COMPLETION OF THE COURSE, NO IN THE BEGINNING (Especially if the rating request come just after 3 boring lessons where consists merely in slides reading...) The platform invited me to evaluate after just 3 lessons! again MAKE NO SENSE! Anyway, hope you be more happy after my new rating. Peace!

In lecture 3, it is VERY hard to hear the instructor. So far, basics have been covered.
By Christopher D lykins on 8/15/2022
Very good introduction. English is very good.
By Ramadhani Yuda Pratama on 8/8/2022
Understandable explanation, it was easy for me as a beginner in PLC to catch up with the materials.
By Nontanut Chitsiriparat on 7/15/2021
the lecture is great easy to follow but the sound quality is kinda poor, and there's melody and noise in some of the videos makes it harder to listen
By A I Reid on 4/26/2021
I love the basics this course starts with, making it suitable for people of all levels.
