Questions
PLC training in Jubail — common questions
Do you offer PLC training in Jubail?
Yes. Engineers in Jubail train with us either live online, or on-site at our Abu Dhabi centre — 700 km away, ~1.5 hour flight. Both routes cover the same five-day syllabus on the same Siemens and Allen-Bradley hardware and lead to the same CPD accredited certificate.
How much does PLC training cost in Jubail?
The Professional Module is AED 9,995 plus 15% VAT, giving a total of AED 10,495. That covers all five days, the hardware you train on, the recorded material and the CPD accredited certificate. We publish the fee openly — most providers in this market quote only on enquiry.
How long is the PLC and SCADA course?
Five days of instruction, plus roughly 12 hours of recorded content you keep access to afterwards. Cohorts are capped at 12 so everyone gets sustained hands-on time rather than watching a demonstration. Weekday and weekend intakes both run; contact us for the next available date.
Do I need experience to start PLC training?
No prior PLC experience is required. The programme starts from first principles and is built for electrical technicians, maintenance staff, instrumentation engineers and recent graduates. A working understanding of basic electrical concepts helps, but you do not need to have programmed a controller before.

Siemens and Allen-Bradley, the two platforms that dominate Gulf industry — TIA Portal with S7-1200 and S7-1500, and Studio 5000 with CompactLogix. You will also cover HMI development, SCADA concepts, VFDs and industrial networking including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and Modbus.
Is the certificate recognised in Saudi Arabia?
The programme is CPD accredited, which is an internationally portable continuing-professional-development standard rather than a national licence. Employers across Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf recognise it. Every certificate carries a unique number that can be checked at https://edwartens.biz/verify.
