Note: End-User customers are also welcome to attend this class to more fully understand the full potential of implementing this product in their facility.

Pre-Requisites:

• Each student must have a Windows 10 64-bit or Windows 11-based laptop running a licensed copy of the most current version of WorkPlace (4.12.x.x).
• Students should have have a functional working knowledge of Windows and computers, including understanding navigation, locating files, folder structures, file paths, browser basics, cut/copy/paste, and using a mouse/keyboard (right/left click) to be successful in this class.

A basic introduction to Niagara (Niagara Operations) can prepare less experienced users and operators, which will better prepare these students for the Niagara 4 Technical Certification course. If you are unfamiliar with Niagara or need to gain controls/programming experience, we suggest you take this class before enrolling in the Niagara 4 Certification class.
