Level Up Your DCS Skills: A Learning Strategy for Automation Engineers

Hello everyone,

Many engineers have reached out about my automation learning approach, so I wanted to share it with everyone!

As DCS engineers, it's our responsibility to stay sharp, but companies also play a crucial role in providing training on the latest technologies and trends.

Here's my personal toolbox ? for continuous learning:

1. Mastering the Basics: Built-in DCS Help and manuals are your first line of defense. They provide a strong foundation for understanding core functionalities.
2. Sharpening Your Skills: Revisit your own Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) regularly. This reinforces knowledge and helps identify areas for improvement.
3. Learning from Others: Actively engage with team members during training sessions. Their questions can spark new insights and broaden your perspective.
4. Expanding Your Knowledge: Supplement your learning with relevant Instrumentation and Control books.
5. Staying Updated: Take advantage of online resources like webinars and tutorials. They offer a flexible way to explore new topics.
6. Real-World Insights: Analyze case studies to learn from successful projects and troubleshoot common challenges.
7. Troubleshooting on the Job: On-site failures present valuable learning opportunities. Analyze the root cause and identify preventive measures.
8. Project Variety: Switching to new projects exposes you to different configurations, fostering adaptability and problem-solving skills.
9. Advanced Training: If there's a major DCS upgrade, leverage OEM training programs to get up to speed on the latest features.

Remember, continuous learning is key to staying ahead of the curve in the ever-evolving world of automation. Let's keep each other informed and share our knowledge to excel together!
