Reserve your seat at one of the 2025 groov EPIC Premium Factory Training classes.

Are you interested in learning more about edge controller technology? Do you need help achieving digital transformation goals within your company? Or are you in search of a better solution for your current applications?

It's time to explore the latest types of controllers that can do so much more than a PLC. Make it happen by attending one of the 2025 groov EPIC Premium Factory Training (PFT) classes at Opto 22 headquarters in Temecula, California.

More classes have just been added to the schedule, along with a new PFT video. Watch for a sneak peek at what you can expect when you get to Opto HQ. 

Your four-day groov EPIC System Premium Factory Training includes:

• Hands-on instruction for the groov EPIC system (Edge Programmable Industrial Controller). Just as the acronym describes, you will learn how to collect, process, view, and exchange data at the edge, explore new programming options, and use industrially hardened equipment to control applications in real time.
• System components and configuration, networking capabilities, diagnostics, troubleshooting, and communication methods that you can apply to your industrial automation application to build solutions for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
• Breakfast snacks and full lunch every day
• Opto 22 T-shirt
• Duffel bag with gifts inside

Prerequisites: Students must have a working knowledge of Microsoft Windows, but no prior Opto 22 knowledge is required.
