In the previous 10 years the focus of manufacturing sector, whether it is automotive or aerospace, was on production. The demand for jobs in the next 10 years will be focused on productivity - primarily driven by automation.
In fact, reports suggest that with greater automation, manufacturing sector will cut down on the traditional jobs. So, if you are an engineer beginning your career, not acquiring skills in automation is not an option anymore.
Automation is one of the few fields where the demand for skilled talent is growing very fast. Moreover, the demand is growing in every industry - automotive, chemicals, public sector/government, construction and even the IT industry. Manufacturing companies always prefer an engineer with prior knowledge of industrial automation over a normal engineer. Automation engineers also fetch higher salaries as compared to a normal engineers.
You might be from any stream - mechanical, electrical, instrumentation or electronics, automation offers a full range of exciting and promising careers in every industry
Jobs in automation are not typical. The scope of work of an Industrial automation engineer is not restricted to any specific industry. You have the flexibility to work in multiple industries and always achieve higher growth in career.
An electrical engineer with a proper qualification in industrial automation can also work in chemical or food industry. Freelancing option is also available, where a professional gets a chance to work in many different industries at different locations.
After completion of my engineering I was looking forward to do a course in PLC & SCADA basically on automation course. In pune I went through many training centers last found the syllabus & training modules of just engineering very apt to learn and grow. The training give was of a good quality and improved and developed my programming skill to a very good level.

I joined a special batch at JEPL to complete the 3 months course in just 12 days only with the help & co-operation of my Trainers at JEPL. Since I am working in Australia, I needed an institute that will help me get the desired knowledge but it being very expensive abroad, I did the same training here in India during my vacation at an extremely cheaper price and am totally satisfied and happy with what I got.

Just go for it guys! Don’t waste time looking for any other institute for PLC training, as the best one is already here. Trust me, the training that you’ll receive here is something nobody in the industry can provide you as the association with an international company promises an international level knowledge at a national platform. I have the knowledge, practical experience and now a Job… what else can one expect?
