Your Instructor
My name is Shane Welcher & I have had a career in PLC and HMI programming for over 23 years, working with Rockwell Automation software. Over the last 9 years, I have also done free training on my YouTube channel to help people learn how to program.
Automation is a great field.
I use industry best practices as standards to make things as successful as they can be.
About Me
I have a great job at one of the more well-known tissue manufacturers, where I am fortunate enough to be mentored by some of the greatest minds in automation to date.
I worked directly with high-level Rockwell engineers and the local engineers where I worked.
Such a great experience; I learned so much that they asked me to make "how-to" documents on how the software worked and the proper best practices for them... a great task to be honored with, as it kept me learning.
WHY DO I TEACH
One of my close (Friend) old coworkers from another job lost his job because the company downsized & he couldn't find work.
Not because there was no work for him, but because the work that was being offered required programming experience. This ended up costing him just about everything he owned until he found work close to a year later....
A scary place to be, I know.
I wanted to help him, so I started teaching him about PLC programming.
I am happy to say he is one of the lead people in controls where he works now. After what he learned and the effort he put in, I have to say that I am proud of his achievement.

His effort is what made the difference.
Automation is a great field.
This led me to start making YouTube videos about PLC programming with Allen-Bradley software so I could help out even more. Two years later, I was asked to make PLC & HMI programming courses because everyone wanted a well-structured learning platform.
My friend's lesson made me think. I made it my mission to change my mindset from getting ready to staying ready.
My BELIEF
Being able to make programming courses challenging to help me be better each & every video, I highly enjoy helping people, so this is why I am still doing this today.
I'm sure that if you put in the effort & apply what you learn here, you will have a great future in the automation field.
