very complicated teaching style

By John Iyanuoluwa Samuel on 8/1/2025

Great course, but I think doing some simple examples like a water pump system into a tank with a level transmitter would be more better and easier to understand

By Abdul Ngobi Musongie on 6/22/2024

From what i have learnt so far in this course, this is by far the MOST COMPREHENSIVE Tia portal course on Earth. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn Tia programming. The instructor is very knowledgeable.
