SITRAIN – Digital Industry Academy

SITRAIN Canada training
SITRAIN Canada helps industrial clients to leverage their biggest asset – their employees. By investing in technical skills training, clients can reduce downtime and improve productivity. Our courses are delivered by certified trainers and focus on practical procedures and maintenance techniques to give your employees the necessary knowledge to keep your operation running smoothly. We offer a schedule of classes in English and French, delivered through the use of written material, lectures, and hands-on simulators for practical skills development. We can customize course content to specific applications and deliver it onsite. Through SITRAIN Canada, clients also have access to a broad range of online learning opportunities.
Dear Customer,

Our safety protocol includes, mandatory masks, review and completion of Visitor Protocol and Visitor Registration form, 6ft social distancing, hand sanitization and disinfectant wipes station in each of our training rooms in addition to enhanced daily cleaning measures.

SITRAIN - Digital Industry Academy helps manufacturers evaluate their workforce and design training programs to improve knowledge and skills. The process begins with a skills assessment of your workforce. Once we identify the skills gaps, the next step is to design a learning program that meets your needs.

Service highlights
SITRAIN Canada offers flexibility in In-Person training whether you are interested in attending one of our open enrollment courses or prefer to book your own class at one of our Siemens locations or host onsite. We can assist you with these options.

Custom Classes: While we are proud to offer standard course content developed by Siemens; we also recognize that many clients require customized course content suited to their specific skills, application, and need. We have successfully modified courses for many industrial disciplines, including automotive, aerospace, and food and beverage. Custom courses may include a minor tweak in content, or completely revamped literature. All customized courses are discussed directly with the client and the instructor to ensure the client’s specific requirements are met. Depending on the client’s needs, we also offer flexibility on delivery to meet specific shift schedules, or to condense course content into a specific timeframe.
Onsite Classes: SITRAIN Canada offers courses at our head office in Oakville, ON. We can also work with clients in our Montreal, QC, Calgary, AB and our partner facility in Edmonton, AB offices. However, there are many advantages to conducting training onsite.
As a rule of thumb, classes involving six or more students are generally more cost-effective when delivered at a client’s site, if a suitable training space is available. Students who must travel to Siemens for training can incur an additional $2,000 per week in food and lodging expenses, over and above the tuition cost. If training is held at a client site, there is also an opportunity to customize course content to the client’s specific needs.
Cost for a custom or onsite class depends on many factors. Contact us to discuss your requirements and request a quote.
