Bridging the Gap in Heavy Process Industries

Heavy process industries all have similar characteristics in terms of safety requirements, work rules, process controls systems technology, human-machine interface (HMI) and plant or line operations. The personnel who make up the operations and maintenance workforces can come from many different backgrounds, from high school graduates to college/trade school or military trained technicians. Today’s heavy industry workers are faced with sophisticated production systems and hi-tech interfaces that our grandfathers, or even fathers, could never have imagined. Providing training to such a disparate group on these ever-evolving technologies can be quite a challenge.
