You are a technician or engineer and need to gain a strong working knowledge of the SCL language for PLC applications
You have basic ladder logic programming experience but want to learn more advanced programming techniques by creating program blocks in SCL using a real-world process example
You want to practice taking complex process descriptions and create PLC logic to create a functioning program to meet those requirements
