B.1 – Introduction<br />

Practice-orientated training is the ideal preparation for the workplace. In<br />

most cases, training on an actual production plant is not feasible, since<br />

the risk of a malfunctioning system as a result of this would be too great<br />

and the production process would thereby be considerably disrupted.<br />

A practice-orientated training system such as the <strong>Process</strong> <strong>Control</strong><br />

<strong>System</strong> is the optimum alternative. With this, trainees and skilled<br />

workers alike can be prepared for the professional demands of the<br />

workplace without any pressure of time.<br />

In practice, a work team must be able to assemble, commission,<br />

operate and maintain a production plant and localise and eliminate any<br />

faults in a system.<br />

This means that in addition to professional competence, each team<br />

member is trained to gain additional qualifications to enable a team to<br />

work effectively. The individual qualifications are:<br />

• Team spirit,<br />

• Willingness to cooperate,<br />

• Ability to learn,<br />

• Initiative and<br />

• Organisational skills.<br />

These abilities, plus professional competence, are known as all-round<br />

performance competence and provide the key to a professional career.<br />

As far as technical vocational and further training in automation is<br />

concerned, this means that new methods have to be employed in order<br />

to attain these qualification objectives. The stations and systems of the<br />

<strong>Process</strong> <strong>Control</strong> <strong>System</strong>s are designed with the qualifications in mind.<br />
