Industry 4.0 technologies are changing society and thus the nature of business operations.
This will require employees of the future to develop particular expertise in one or more of these new technologies.
This initiative is designed to:
- Introduce these new technologies and how they can be deployed to improve business processes.
- Identify which Industry 4.0-related technologies will be of most use for any organisation to develop expertise.
- Explain the business reasoning and associated societal trends that suggest you need to develop such expertise.
- Explore what your company needs to do (as individuals) to develop this expertise.
What companies can expect to gain by adopting Industry 4.0 Technologies:
1. Increased Efficiency
Industry 4.0 helps cut costs by automating processes that were previously carried out manually, allowing employees to focus on more strategic tasks.
2. Reduced Waste:
Industry 4.0 creates a closed loop that allows companies to track production processes and reduce unnecessary waste.
It can also help pinpoint the cause of value stream problems much faster, which will save the company money in terms of raw materials, time, and energy.
3. Improved Product Quality:
The data exchanged between machines allows them to communicate their operational issues, so that processes and supply chains can be optimised and made much more cost-effective.
4. Industry 4.0 and Net Zero
Many of the technologies of Industry 4.0 can play a part in reducing carbon emissions.
How will these Units be delivered?
Beginning in November 2024 we will run a series of themed Industry 4.0 webinars.
Identifying the relevant modules.
Introducing the material in a modular way allows companies to manage their training programme in a way that suits their exact needs.
A comprehensive series of modules has been developed, based on many years of industrial and academic experience.
Significantly, people do not need to study all the modules.
Customised training packages for a particular industry or company can be selected on a mix-and-match basis. This could mean commitment to just 3 or 4 of the modules.
These Industry 4.0 webinars (each 1 hour in duration) will be structured as follows :
- Unit 1 : An Introduction to Industry 4.0
- Unit 2 : Management of Big Data.
- Unit 3 : Internet of Things (IoT).
- Unit 4 : Cloud Computing.
- Unit 5 : Extended reality (A.R. and V.R.).
- Unit 6 : Simulation and Digital Twins.
- Unit 7 : Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing).
- Unit 8 : Robotics.
- Unit 9 : Cyber Security.
- Unit 10 : Artificial Intelligence.
- Unit 11: Green Technologies for Net Zero.
- Unit 12: Developing Digital Strategies and Action Plans.
Companies can design a unique training programme that meets their exact needs and progress at a pace that suits their exact situation.
In this way, a company can develop the skills and technological capability to compete in today’s fiercely competitive market.

How do we deliver these tools?
Increasingly, client requirements are for our support courses and mentoring to be delivered as a series of 1 hour long on-line webinars delivered at a time and frequency to suit their convenience.
We believe this to be the most efficient and cost-effective mode of delivering training and support – particularly in these trying times.
