Cybersecurity Courses

Cybersecurity Awareness Training for Water/Wastewater Industry Professionals (IC31CV)

This course explores the foundations of cybersecurity for water and wastewater environments and teaches how to identify risks and strengthen your organization’s defenses.

Using the ISA/IEC 62443 Series of Standards to Secure Your Control Systems (IC32)

This course provides a detailed look at how the ISA/IEC 62443 (formerly ISA99) standards can be used to protect your critical control systems. 

Assessing the Cybersecurity of New or Existing IACS Systems (IC33)

This course will provide students with the information and skills to assess the cybersecurity of new or existing IACSs and to develop a cybersecurity requirements specification (CRS) that can be used to document the cybersecurity requirements of a project. 

Industrial Automation Control System (IACS) Cybersecurity Design & Implementation (IC34)

This course covers standards‑based techniques to secure industrial control systems, streamline security decision‑making and demonstrate measurable improvements in resilience and compliance, while improving communication with engineering, operations and procurement teams.  

IACS Cybersecurity Operations & Maintenance (IC37)

This course focuses on activities related to the ongoing operation and maintenance of IACS cybersecurity implemented during the Design & Implementation phase. 

ISA Secure Automation and Control System Security Assurance (ACSSA) for Evaluators (IC49V)

The course will equip participants with the knowledge required to evaluate the implementation and maintenance of security measures, ensuring that operating industrial automation and control systems (IACS) conform to ISA/IEC 62443 standards using the ISASecure® IACS Security Assurance (ACSSA) Program.

Certification and Licensure Courses

Certified Control Systems Technician® (CCST®) Level 1 Review Course (TS00E) 

This course reviews the knowledge and practical skills necessary to install and maintain standard measurement and control instrumentation. This course is preparation for the CCST Level I certification exam. 

Technician and Engineering Courses

Safety Instrumented Systems: A Lifecycle Approach (EC50) 

This course focuses on the engineering requirements for the specification, design, analysis and justification of safety instrumented systems (SIS) for the process industries.  

Advanced Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Selection (EC52)

This course builds upon the foundation set in ISA's Safety Instrumented Systems: A Lifecycle Approach (EC50) and explores examples of SIL selections through different techniques and determinations of risk reduction requirements.  

Advanced Design and SIL Verification (EC54)

This course focuses on detailed design issues and hands-on examples of system analysis/modeling. Students will learn to analyze any system, technology and configuration to determine whether it meets the required SIL (Safety Integrity Level), whether existing systems are safe enough, whether they need to be upgraded and whether proposed systems will meet the performance requirements.

Boiler Control Systems Engineering (ES15)

This course provides an overview of boiler components and their purposes, as well as the ISA symbols used in boiler controls. Learn to identify boiler engineering and controls using these symbols and a method of presenting the engineering.

Burner Management Systems Engineering Using NFPA Code 85 and ANSI/ISA77 Standards (ES16)

This course covers the safe start-up, monitoring and shut-down of multiple burner boiler furnaces. It also discusses the causes of furnace explosions and the relationship between burner management systems and boiler control systems.

Batch Control Using the ISA-88 Standards (IC40E)

This course discusses the characteristics of batch manufacturing systems and teaches students to develop functional requirements and specifications using the models and terminology defined in the ISA-88 batch control series of standards.    

ISA-95/IEC 62264 Enterprise-Control System Integration (E-CSI) Fundamentals (IC55E)

This course provides an overview of the ISA-95/IEC 62264 standards framework and how it can be used to define business activities and the flow of information between flexible shop-floor execution systems and sophisticated enterprise planning (ERP) systems.

Automation Project Management (MT01)

This course is split into two parts. The first part discusses basic project management skills common to all project types. The second part focuses solely on automation projects.    

Tuning Control Loops (TC05)

This course is for anyone who would like to gain a better understanding of how to tune control loops, whether they have tuned loops and would like to become more proficient, or they have never tuned a loop before.    

Troubleshooting Instrumentation and Control Systems (TC10)

This course presents a systematic approach to troubleshooting and starting up single- and multi-loop control loops. This course also covers how pressure, level, flow and temperature loops operate to maintain good process control systems.
