Level 1: Fundamentals
Robotics
Today, and in the future, Robotics are becoming more and more common. From repetitive tasks to highly complex
interaction with humans, robots can be found. This course is designed expose students to the various types of robots
Level 1
and the various ways they can increase productivity in industrial applications. While these robots can replace low
skilled human tasks, they require people with technical skills to program, operate and maintain them.
Upon completion of this course, student will have worked with various types and brands of robots – learning how to
program, teach positions, and work safely with these critical elements of modern industry
