Top companies maintain their competitive advantage by maximizing productivity and minimizing costs - by optimizing and controlling critical processes. Training is an essential element in equipping engineers for success and achieving that advantage.
The Practical Process Control curriculum is how top companies empower
their human resources and to maximize the return on their capital investments. Practical
Process Control Training has helped process technicians and engineers to
understand and apply innovative control techniques.
How do top companies like Holcim (US) (cement), Lafarge North America (cement), Honeywell (chemicals), Westinghouse Savannah River (power), ChevronTexaco (petroleum), Genzyme (biotech/pharmaceutical), and Owens Corning (chemicals) maintain their competitive advantage? Attend PID Control workshop and learn proven techniques that will improve your bottom-line performance.
Control Station equipped my team with the training they needed to succeed. They kept [it] simple and straightforward, focusing on techniques that could be applied immediately on the plant floor E&I Supervisor- Magnesium Elektron
Control Station s case study approach to teaching the subject was unique. Learning by doing helped me understand the topics as they were presented. Process Engineer - International Flavor & Fragrances
I learned a great deal and I will recommend this workshop for all of our process staff. Maintenance Manager - Ash Grove Cement
These process control training courses, as with all of our training courses, are not just text book instructions but practical knowledge and case examples based on years of experience.
The Atlanta training also comes with Free PID software demo, handouts and a copy of Practical Process Control by Douglas J. Cooper.
This course offer information your people will actually use out on the shop floor.
Be sure and read PID Instructor's (Dr. Rice) articles on our site.

Course Location ...
Just 1/4 mile from the
Stone Mountain
Conference Center
Atlanta, Georgia
As a less expensive alternate, reservation may be made at the Country
Inn & Suites. Country Inn is where training seminar will be held and
is only 1/4 mi from Stone Mountain Conference Center. Seminars end on Thursday, so your can reward your self by visiting Stone Mountain afterwards. Nice golf
course and great for families too.
