Purpose
The occupational course of Industrial Automation Project Development enables any person to develop the entire automation design of an industrial installation or machine, from the preparation of electrical drawings and all other documentation of the automation project (bill of materials, work certificates, etc.) to the development of the control software of the systems involved (robots, PLCs, operator terminals and Scades).
With the elaboration of different practical cases we guarantee the learning of the most common techniques to develop industrial automation projects, both from the point of view of the elaboration of the electrical drawings and the programming of the robots, plc’s, operator terminals and Scades that are part of the installation.
Who is the target audience?
Profiles with basic electrical knowledge interested in developing their professional career in the field of industrial automation.
They must be registered with the Employment Service of Catalonia before starting the training action, whether they are unemployed workers (80% of the places), accrediting the DONO, or employed workers (20% of the places), making the demand for improvement.
Priority groups
Priority will be given to unemployed workers seeking employment (DONO), and also:
- People with special difficulties of insertion into the labor market and/or in a situation of social vulnerability (people with a recognized disability equal to or greater than 33%, people over 45 years of age, people registered as job seekers who have been unemployed for more than 2 years).
- Women.
- People who do not receive unemployment benefits or who are not entitled to them. People with low professional qualifications.
- Young people under 30 years of age.
- Workers under ERTE (Expediente de Regulación Temporal de Ocupación).
- Beneficiaries of the PREPARA, “Activation for Employment” programs and others that entail the obligation or commitment to participate in training courses for employment, within the active employment policies.

The Certificate of Professionalism is made up of blocks called Units of Competence and these in turn are organized into Training Modules. Each unit of competence is associated with a training action code within the itinerary and it is facilitated for the same student to participate in all the actions of the itinerary, so that he can obtain the corresponding degree.
The certificate is validated through the Professional Qualifications with the formation of the Intermediate and/or Higher Education Cycle of the professional family to which it corresponds.
The student who does not complete all the training modules that make up the certificate of professionalism will obtain a certification of the passed modules that will have cumulative partial accreditation effects of the acquired professional skills.
