Coaching & Support

Coaching and Support

Online doesn't mean on your own. Every student has direct access to experienced PLC coaches, live help and a community of people working toward the same goal.

The Team

Your coaches

Stephen Gates, our founder and lead coach, and David Castro lead the coaching. Between them they bring more than 26 years of experience programming PLCs across a range of industries. With coaches in the US and the UK, questions are covered almost around the clock.

Help When You Need It

Five ways to get help

Direct messages

Send a quick question with a screenshot and get a written answer.

Video Q&A

For bigger problems, record your screen and explain what you're stuck on. Your coach replies with a video walking you through the fix. Responses come within 24 hours, usually sooner.

Live group coaching calls, three times a week

A virtual classroom where you can ask questions and hear other students' questions. Every call is recorded, so you can replay any session.

One-on-one reviews

Individual time with a coach at two months, four months, and near the end of the program, to check your progress and provide individual coaching so you stay on track.

Private student community

Around 170 electricians, maintenance technicians, instrument techs, engineers and HVAC professionals sharing questions, wins and advice.

Progress

Staying on track

Your journey starts with a Start Here module and a booked onboarding call, so you're set up and ready from day one. Your coaches assess the practical work you submit, and you receive regular progress reports so you always know where you stand.

After the Program

After you finish

Graduates have options to keep access to course material and coach support, so you can refresh your skills or ask about problems you meet in the field.
