A popular reason engineers take our courses? Because Googling "why does everything keep tripping" at 3 am is not a long-term strategy (trust us) 😅 We get it. We’ve lived it. We built our courses for it. vist.ly/4dsks

Turning maintenance nightmares into training courses 👻 This Halloween, we’re launching our new @cityandguilds Assured 2-day Structured Text IMFFP Course! Starting November, get hands-on writing and optimising code in Siemens, Allen-Bradley, or CODESYS. Level up… if you dare 🎃

Something wicked this way comes... 👻 At Scantime, we’re brewing up something new for maintenance engineers and technicians… a powerful way to take your PLC troubleshooting to the next level. Here’s a little hint...👀

When it comes to learning PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, and automation, experience matters⚡ At Scantime, our tutors are industry engineers with years of experience on real systems, sharing practical insights, hands-on techniques, and tips you won’t find in any textbook 👍

Drum roll please... 🥁 We’re delighted to announce the winner of our LEGO® Concorde prize draw from the NEAA Expo 🙌 The winner is... Harry Walker! Congratulations, Harry, we hope you enjoy building your new LEGO® Concorde 👏
