Reimagining Workforce Training - Webinar

Reimagine your teaching/training program guided by a professor who created an affordable solution for aspiring engineers and technicians. Explore the processes used to develop a low-cost course that includes Open Educational Resources (OER) and a programmable logic controller (PLC). In this session you will see first-hand how to successfully create a low-cost option for Engineering students. Whether students are remote or face-to-face, these guided lessons with video tutorials and labs are all Free. Learn about some of the challenges encountered and their innovative solutions that can be applied in other teaching/training contexts. This is workforce training reimagined with an affordable solution! The SkillsCommons team worked with Ted Evans from the University of Toledo to create a Showcase on SkillsCommons to highlight the work he has done in creating OER for Hybrid PLC Mechatronics. Ted has created a very affordable learning solution for this field. We are excited to promote what he is doing and to share his story with others.
